6CycleMind Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To make you feel alright
I know that I can kiss away the pain
To brighten up your night
If only you’ll say
If only you’ll stay
Will you believe in destiny
Like Romeo and Juliet
They lived and died together, yes it’s true
(Now) if only you’ll say
If only you’ll stay
Tell me softly what you want to hear
Hold my hand, we’ll run away from here
You know that I’m always here
You just have to open Up your eyes
If you could only hear me now
Please say what you have to say
If only you’ll say
If only you’ll stay
Tell me softly what you want to hear
Hold my hand we’ll run away from here
Tell me softly what you want to hear
Hold my hand we’ll run away from here
Tell me softly what you want to hear
Hold my hand we’ll run away from here
Tell me softly what you want to hear
Hold my hand we’ll run away from here
