Just like you
Lillix Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Down that road we all know, all things aside
I've got a few questions you have to reply and soon
'Cause I need you

Remember when we were young, taking a ride
Counting all the waterfalls that fell from the sky
With you, I miss you
Those were times I won't forget

I know without you I'll try
To stay calm, strong, beautiful inside my mind
Like you, just like you

As I lay wide awake under the sky
Waiting for signs that say you'll be all right
This time all is fine
Vividly in my dreams, I recall times
Sitting there with your arm reaching for mine to hold
And don't let go

Those were days I can't replace

I know without you I'll try
To stay calm, strong, beautiful inside my mind
Like you, just like you
And if forever I try
I know I'll be questioning only what's right with you
Only you

You left me here with all your memories
Here you will stay, I'll be okay
With words so wise, down fell from your eyes
Here you will stay, I'll be okay

I know without you I'll try
To stay calm, strong, beautiful inside my mind
Like you, just like you
And if forever I try
I know I'll be questioning only what's right with you
Only you

Remember when we were young, taking a ride




Counting all the waterfalls that fell from the sky
I miss you
