Jungle
Alok Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm out feeling lonely again
Am I too scared? Scared of letting you in?
Keep on hoping that you'll stay 'til the end
Even when I hide

Maybe something's holding me back
Oh, maybe I just like it like that
Keep on hoping one day you'll understand
When I'm not making sense

I got a jungle in my heart
When it gets wild, when it gets dark
Yeah, only you know where to go
But if you're lost then let me know
I got a jungle in my heart
I wish I knew you from the start
It never feels like you're that far
From the jungle in my heart

In my heart

I don't ever stop believing in us
Try my best to hold onto what we got
When it's slipping, oh, I hope it's enough (ooh)

Maybe something's holding me back
Oh, maybe I just like it like that
Keep on hoping one day you'll understand
When I'm not making sense

I got a jungle in my heart
I wish I knew you from the start
It never feels like you're that far
From the jungle in my heart

(I got a jungle in my heart)
(I got a jungle in my heart)
(I got a jungle in my heart)
(I got a jungle in my heart)
(I got a jungle)
In my heart

I got a jungle in my heart
When it gets wild, when it gets dark
Yeah, only you know where to go
But if you're lost then let me know
I got a jungle in my heart
I wish I knew you from the start




It never feels like you're that far
From the jungle in my heart

Am I too scared? Scared of letting you in?
Keep on hoping that you'll stay 'til the end
Even when I hide

Maybe, something's holding me back
Oh, maybe, I just like it like that
Keep on hoping one day you'll understand
When I'm not making sense

I got a jungle in my heart
When it gets wild, when it gets dark
Yeah, only you know where to go
But if you're lost then let me know
I got a jungle in my heart
I wish I knew you from the start
It never feels like you're that far
From the jungle in my heart

In my heart

I don't ever stop believing in us
Try my best to hold onto what we got
And when it's slipping, oh, I hope it's enough (Ooh)

Por isso Alok é considerado o melhor dj do Brasil e creio que será o maior do mundo num futuro presente! Quanto orgulho desse cara! 👏👏👏😍😍

@rhennermawan328

@@alvestadriix mano, sabe como o nome disso se chama?? Incentivo! Pode ser que ele não seja o melhor mas, quando você incentiva alguém a crescer cada dia mais, você se torna melhor só por fazer isso! Eu amo o mundo house, eletro-house, trance, eletrônica e etc... Sei que existe dj's q são top's demais, só que eu acredito que Alok pode chegar no top 3, pq quem acompanha ele desde o começo igual eu, sabe que o cara tá cada dia mais sensacional! 👏👏👏🙏🙏😊 @SucessoSempreAlokEstareiSempreNaSuaListadeFãs! 🤜🏻🤛🏻😍
