STORY OF US
JO YURI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh-whoa
Hey, yeah-yeah-yeah

You make me much better when you're here
I'm lucky when I'm in your atmosphere
Every little move you do
Every little thing you say
It saves me from falling much deeper

I lay down my head on your shoulder
And think if I could always be like this
I breathe in your scent and I don't dare to blink
If we could always be like this

Just listen here we are again
Through the fire, through the rain
The roads we crossed, they built story of us
Here we are again and I still feel the same
You and I, we write the story of us

Sway with me like a firefly
Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us
Sway with me like a firefly
Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us

Don't fail me
That's my biggest fear
Keep sailing on waves of love, my dear
Nobody can make me feel
Anything like you, so real
You save me from falling much deeper

I lay down my head on your shoulder
And think if I could always be like this
I breathe in your scent and I don't dare to blink
If we could always be like this

Just listen, here we are again
Through the fire, through the rain
The roads we crossed, they built story of us
Here we are again and I still feel the same
You and I, we write the story of us

Sway with me like a firefly
Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us
Sway with me like a firefly
Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us

Hold me, don't let go
We've been scarred, broken hearts
But they made us much stronger
You and I

Sway with me like a firefly
(Stay with me) 'til the day I die
(Write the story) of us
Sway with me like a firefly
Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us

Just listen here we are again (here we are again)
Through the fire, through the rain (fire through the rain)
The roads we crossed, they built story of us
Here we are again (here we are again) and I still feel the same
You and I, we write the story of us

Sway with me like a firefly




Stay with me 'til the day I die
Write the story of us
