I
Eva Avila Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I could turn to you
You know I am dying to
The night could turn to day

But all the days just seem so long
So where did I go wrong
There's more I have to say
I made a mistake, I am human you know
What would it take
I know I've got no more chances all
I am on my knees, I'm sorry

I wallow out in pain, I swallow my cry
I swallow the sea of tears
You cry for me I'm sorry

Last night how was the sleep
And you were next to me
I saw he turned the smile
But all I opened my eyes
And in this bed if lies
I feel my own heart breaking

I made a mistake I am human you know
What would it take
I know I've got no more chances all
I am on my knees, I'm sorry

I wallow out in pain, I swallow my cry
I swallow the sea of tears
You cry for me I'm sorry

All is on my mind
A million reasons why
I cant believe your love has passed me by

I made a mistake I am human you know
What would it take
I know I've got no more chances all
I am on my knees, I'm sorry

I wallow the pain, I swallow my cry




I swallow the sea of tears
That you cry for me I'm sorry
