My Life
Chanel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got me hurting cause I'm wanting you
And you're leaving me
Said you need more space
If it makes your life much easier
Your love I'll share
Just tell me that you'll stay

Cause you can't go, not just yet
Want you close, by my side
When love's this good, it's hard to find
Know that I love you, and you're always in...

My life, my life, and I want you in...

It's not like me to be this way
But my love for you has got me so confused
And it's not the things you do for me
How you make me feel
Keeps me wanting you

You can't go, not just yet
Want you close, by my side
When love's this good, it's hard to find
Know that I love you, and you're always in...

My life, my life, and I want you in...

I just wanna let you know that I'l be here for you
To make sure that you're happy, my happiness is you
I just wanna let you know that I'l be here for you
I just wanna hold on to the love I found

You can't go, not just yet
Want you close, by my side





My life, my life, and I want you in...
