Little mama want this energy

So I'm gone give her all this energy

The cosmo stops and the stars collide
Till they find they perfect alignment
And that's you and I
Hey lil mama come and lay wit me
And hold and hold me closer
Cuz your every kiss is beautiful
It's a wake up call to me
And the night is getting colder

Yes, I do, I believe
That one day I will be where I was
Right there, right next to you
And it's hard, the days just seem so dark
The moon, and the stars are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain the way I'm missing you
Deny this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside
These tears, they tell their own story
Told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you? You
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call, boy?
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you, I'm missing you like crazy, you
Can I lay by your side? Next to you, to you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
Oh, lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side, whoa
Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Can I lay by your side? Next to you, you

I think of you all the time
ever since the day you disappeared 
i felt i lost you i should have never took you for granted
i should have cherished every second with you.
and enjoy each moment but instead..










You're now in my stomach
R.I.P Cupcake



@lilisagustin8952

Dulu awal awal dengerin lagu ini selalu nangis padahal gak kehilangan siapapun..

2021 aku kehilangan dua orang yg aku sayang dalam waktu yang berdekatan, Mama&Nene. Orang yang paling tulus sayang sama aku dan adik2ku,
Baru bisa dengerin lagu ini lagi setelah setahun lebih kehilangan Mama, karna udah pasti nangis bgt.

Setelah mama gak ada, rasanya aku mulai perlahan lupa tujuan hidup aku apa aja. Semua orang nyuruh aku buat tidak berlarut larut katanya, tp aku rasa luka kehilangan mama gak akan pernah sembuh.
Semenjak kehilangan mama, aku sudah tidak pernah berharap sama manusia lagi maaa orang2 berubah ketika mama gaada termasuk bapaa..

🤍

Yes, I do, I believe
Sim, eu acredito

That one day I will be where I was
Que um dia estarei onde estava

Right there, right next to you
Bem aqui, bem perto de você

And it's hard, the days just seem so dark
E é difícil, os dias parecem tão escuros

The Moon and the stars are nothing without you
A Lua, as estrelas, não são nada sem você


Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
Seu toque, sua pele, por onde começo?

No words can explain the way I'm missing you
Nenhuma palavra pode explicar o jeito que estou sentindo sua falta

The night is emptiness, this hole that I'm inside
A noite é um vazio, esse buraco em que eu estou

These tears, they tell their own story
Essas lágrimas, elas contam suas próprias histórias

You told me not to cry when you were gone
Você me disse para não chorar quando você se fosse

But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Mas o sentimento é avassalador, é pesado demais


Can I lay by your side?
Eu posso me deitar do seu lado?

Next to you, you
Perto de você, você

And make sure you're alright
E ter certeza de que você está bem

I'll take care of you
Eu cuidarei de você

And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
E eu não quero ficar aqui, se não puder estar com você hoje à noite


I'm reaching out to you
Estou procurando por você

Can you hear my call?
Você consegue ouvir o meu chamado?

This hurt that I've been through
Essa dor pela qual passei

I'm missing you, missing you like crazy
Estou sentindo sua falta, sentindo sua falta loucamente


Can I lay by your side?
Eu posso me deitar do seu lado?

Next to you, you
Perto de você, você

And make sure you're alright
E ter certeza de que você está bem

I'll take care of you
Eu cuidarei de você

And I don't wanna be here if I can't be with you tonight
E eu não quero ficar aqui, se não puder estar com você hoje à noite


Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Me deite hoje à noite, me deite do seu lado

Lay me down tonight, lay me by your side
Me deite hoje à noite, me deite do seu lado


Can I lay by your side?
Posso me deitar do seu lado?

Next to you, you
Perto de você, você

Lay Me Down (Lyrics)
By: Sam Smith

Yes, I do, I believe
That one day I will be
Where I was right there
Right next to you

And it's hard
The days just seem so dark
The moon and the stars
Are nothing without you

Your touch, your skin
Where do I begin?
No words can explain
The way I'm missing you

Deny this emptiness
This hole that I'm inside,
These tears, they tell their own story

Told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming,
It's much too strong

Can I lay by your side?
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
I don't want to be here,
If I can't be with you tonight

I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call?
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you, missing you like crazy

Can I lay by your side?
Next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
I don't want to be here,
If I can't be with you tonight

Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Lay me down tonight
Lay me by your side
Can I lay by your side?
Next to you, you
