Yuna Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Like lullabies, you are
Forever in my mind
I see you in all
The pieces in my life
Though you weren't mine
You were my first love

I wanted to go away with you
And I will leave all my troubles here
I wanted to run away with you
And I will bring all my dreams and fears

Like lullabies, you are
Forever in my mind
I see you in all
The pieces in my life

Though you weren't mine

Like lullabies, you are
Forever in my mind
I see you in all
The pieces in my life

Though you weren't mine
Though you weren't mine
You were my first love
You were my first love

I wanted to start again with you
And I will leave all my worries here
I wanted only you
I know that I, I felt with you

Like lullabies, you are
Forever in my mind
I see you in all
The pieces in my life
Though you weren't mine

Like lullabies, you are
Forever in my mind
I see you in all
The pieces in my life

Though you weren't mine
Though you weren't mine
You were my first love
You were my first love
You were my first love
You were my first love
