Lyric

Share my lifeTake me for what I am‘Cause I’ll never changeAll my colors for you
Take my loveI’ll never ask for too muchJust all that you areAnd everything that you do
I don’t really need to lookVery much furtherI don’t wanna have to goWhere you don’t followI won’t hold it back againThis passion insideCan’t run from myselfThere’s nowhere to hide
Don’t make me close one more doorI don’t wanna hurt anymoreStay in my arms if you dareOr must I imagine you thereDon’t walk away from meI have nothing, nothing, nothingIf I don’t have you, you, you, you, you, you
You see throughRight to the heart of meYou break down my wallsWith the strength of your love, mm
I never knewLove like I’ve known it with youWill a memory surviveOne I can hold on to?
I don’t really need to lookVery much furtherI don’t wanna have to goWhere you don’t followI won’t hold it back againThis passion insideI can’t run from myselfThere’s nowhere to hideYour love I’ll remember forever
Don’t make me close one more doorI don’t want to hurt anymoreStay in my arms if you dareOr must I imagine you thereDon’t walk away from meI have nothing, nothing, nothing
Don’t make me close one more doorI don’t wanna hurt anymoreStay in my arms if you dareOr must I imagine you thereDon’t walk away from meNo, don’t walk away from meDon’t you dare walk away from meI have nothing, nothing, nothingIf I don’t have you, youIf I don’t have you, oh, oh
