Dance
Raga Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every time I hold your hand,
I know you understand.
When I wake up in the night,
Afraid of the day,
You hold me tight.
And dark storms arise,
But I can bear the fight.
You give me wings,
A guiding light,
God, I feel the light.

When I am weak,
You are strong.
When I am lost,
You just carry on.
When days are sad,
You make me smile.
You can make me or break me,
But all you ever do - you complete me in every way.

Every time I lost my heart,
You never lost your head.
Yuo just waited
Till I would find
My head and heart again.

And dark storms arise,
But I can bear the fight.
You give me wings,
A guiding light,
God, I feel the light.

When I am weak,
You are strong.
When I am lost,
You just carry on.
When days are sad,
You make me smile.
You can make me or break me,
But all you ever do - you complete me.

If I ever lose you
For a moment out of sight,
I would wait for you
As the day turns into night.
Would there even be someone
Who just came and took your heart?
I'd be so lost without you.
It's you what I'm made of.

But all you ever do,
When I am weak,
You are strong.
When I am lost,
You just carry on.
When days are sad,
You make me smile.




You can make me or break me,
But all you ever do - you complete me in every way
