Talisman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you need somebody call out my name
I'll be waiting right by your side
Tonight

I've heard the words out on the street
Your love is much in danger
Though I can hear the tears of pain
I can see the cries of anger

Oh oh oh
if you let me know
We can chase the night away

If you need somebody call out my name
I'll be waiting right by your side
Everything changes but love will remain
I'm awaiting right by your side
Tonight
Yeah Yeah

Inside and outside and upside down this merry go round u give in for
Tell me the reasons why you go back back to the same old story

Oh oh oh
I can be the one
Dancing and romancing until the morning light

If you need somebody call out my name
I'll be waiting right by your side
Everything changes but love will remain
I'm awaiting right by your side
Tonight

We can chase the night away

If you need somebody call out my name
I'll be waiting right by your side
Everything changes but love will remain
I'm awaiting
So If you need somebody call out my name
I'll be waiting right by your side
Everything changes but love will remain
I'm awaiting right by your side
Tonight Yeah yeah Yeah
