View from Somewhere
Amira Kheir Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing can compares
The feelings I had that night
You were shining bring
Under the light
Even the stars can't fight it
Don't leave me hanging
With some flowers in my hand
Turn around now
We've brought some love now
All the way from KL
KL
We've brought some light
All the way from KL
It's been 9 months
Since I last saw you
That sharp nose
Those beautiful eyes
Words can't describe how much I miss you
Just hug me tight
And the guy beside
Don't leave me hanging
I'll be right here waiting
With some flowers in my hand
Turn around now
We've brought some love now
All the way from KL
KL
All the way from KL
