The Way that You Are
Atomic Kitten(原子少女猫) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Looking it over
Thinking about all the times we've spent together
Don't worry about it
'Cause the feelings I have no longer seem to be with me

The morning moved on to the night today's away
Falling apart 'cause the night can't take the grey

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Made it through the bad times
Cried all my tears have to move on with my life now
Know that I will be strong
Now you'll always be mine never one to say goodbye

The morning moved on to the night today's away
Falling apart 'cause the night can't take the grey

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

No more heartache to get me down
No more sadness to be yeah
No more waiting till you come round
You know that you're the only one for me
For reasons maybe only I can see
Yeah

The way that you are
The look in your eyes
Feels like my world is coming together
The way that you smile
Just for a while
I know it took sometime to discover
From one broken heart to another
You're the only one

Baby, baby
Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long

Baby, baby




Baby you're the one
Keeping me awake baby all night long
