Amber
Hanne Kah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Long time I've been thinking 'bout these story lines,
anyhow I feel, how life goes.
I don't want to beat the world unsatisfied,
I don't want to leave without a call.

And I feel as if I could be holding on,
but the world is wider than my view.
There were days, there were nights,
there were times that reborn me and I
had to start over again.
I live wrong, I live right,
I had seen things from the other side
and still I'm on my feet to get it on,
'cause I can't deny it all.

If I'm the one to speak these words unspoken,
maybe I'm the one to lay you down.
If I could only kept(?) this spark of fire,
the candlelight burns bright before it dies.

And I feel as if I could be holding on,
but the world is wider than my view.

There were days, there were nights,
there were times that reborn me and I
had to start over again.
I live wrong, I live right,
I had seen things from the other side
and still I'm on my feet to get it on,
'cause I can't deny it all.

Follow you deep
when you sleep...???
to keep you near...

You lift me up and take me home,
now you're here, then you're gone and I know
that you'll never be alone...
hey!

There were days, there were nights,
there were times that reborn me and I
had to start over again.
I live wrong, I live right,
I had seen things from the other side




and still I'm on my feet to get it on,
'cause I can't deny it all.
