Natasha Bedingfield Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

That original feeling never went away
That's why I'm standing here today (whoa oh, whoa oh)
So many ups and downs and nothing's changed
That's why I know I'm here to stay (whoa oh, whoa oh)

So put your arms around me and then stay there forever
Let it always be this way, you and me together
So put your arms around me and I'll never let go

I know they're easy words to say, but I mean it more than ever

(Sing it with me)
Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no)
That original feeling never went away
That's why I'm standing here today (whoa oh, whoa oh)
(Ain't nobody gonna take your place, only you make me feel this way)
So many ups and downs and nothing's changed
That's why I know I'm here to stay (whoa oh, whoa oh)
(Ain't nobody gonna replace, only you make me feel the same)

So put your arms around me and then stay there forever
Let is always be this way, you and me together
So put your arms around me and I'll never let go (never let you go)
I know they're easy words to say, but I mean it more than ever

Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no)
Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no)

I can't explain, what's the glue that holds us in? (whoa oh, whoa oh)
I can't refrain, if I had the chance to do it again (whoa oh, whoa oh)

So put your arms around me
So put your arms around me and then stay there forever
Let it always be this way, you and me together
So put your arms around me and I'll never let go
I know they're easy words to say, but I mean it more than ever
(Put your arms around me)
So put your arms around me and then stay there forever
Let it always be this way, you and me together
So put your arms around me and I'll never let go
I know they're easy words to say, but I mean it more than ever

Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no)
Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no)

Yours is the kind of love, makes nothing else feel good enough
And I'm never gonna give you up (oh no, oh no, no no)
