Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But when the night falls, it makes it better
When you go away, make them go away
Please baby, stay
When it hurts like this, stay for one last kiss
Please baby, stay
Without you, I keep trying to catch the fall
Without you, without you
When your heart breaks down
It's never gonna turn around and help you
And then it will fall
The stars will go with every bit I keep on wanting you
When you go away, make them go away
Please baby, stay
When it hurts like this, stay for one last kiss
Please baby, stay
Without you, many stars are seen to fall
Without you, I keep trying to catch the fall
Without you, many stars are seen to fall
Without you, I keep trying to catch the fall
Without you, without you
Without you, without you
