Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't mind if it rains for a century
I don't mind the rain
I don't mind if you're here lying next to me
I don't mind the pain

So put it on me, put it on me, ah
Put it on me, I want your love
Put it on me

You're my light, I see when I come alive
See when I come alive, live, live...
I revive, see when I come alive
See when I come alive

Fire runs through my veins at the speed of light
Fire through my veins
(I want your love, I want your love)
A thousand suns lead the way to an endless night
I embrace the pain
(I want your love, I want your love)

You're my light, I see when I come alive
See when I come alive, live, live...
I revive, see when I come alive
See when I come alive

See you when I come alive
See you when I come alive
See you when I come alive

I don't mind if it rains for a century
I don't mind the rain

So put it on me, put it on me, ah
Put it on me, I want your love
Put it on me

You're my light, I see when I come alive
See when I come alive, live, live...
I revive, see when I come alive
See when I come alive

See you when I come alive

See you when I come alive
See you when I come alive
