without
Y&Y Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I saw you
The night was blue
I pursued by
With my eyes

Hypnotised
By your smile
By your grace
By your style

I wanted to
Be close to you
And I could tell you wanted too

Cos I can’t go home without you
Won’t leave alone
Cos if I wake up without you
My chance is blown
Cos you are leaving with the break of dawn
So let us try to change our lives, tonight

(Ooh, tonight)

I won’t explain
I’ll use no words
For what I feel
When you’re near

Take my hand
And turn me around
Let’s take off
From the ground

Dance me far
Far away
Hold on tight
Let’s be insane

Cos I can’t go home without you
Won’t leave alone
Cos if I wake up without you
My chance is blown
Cos you are leaving with the break of dawn
So let us try to change our lives, tonight

I’ve never felt this way
I cannot tell you why
There’s something in the air
That we can not deny

Don’t wana be afraid
Don't wana be too wise
I want your love
I wana feel alive

Cos you are leaving with the break of dawn
So let us try to change our lives
I can’t go home without you
Won’t leave alone
Cos if I wake up without you
My chance is blown




Cos you are leaving with the break of dawn
So let us try to change our lives, tonight

"Without"

You're the first one, you're the champion
You're the tall one, you were halcyon
You don't belong to me, you're too far away
And everything falls apart when I try to say

You're in love, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Ohh, you can hate me now
Cause I'll be gone
And I'll be with you or without

You can count the wrongs, you can make it worse
How could I have known your universe?
Follow the marks you left, feel the undertone
All that you thought you knew is so hard to hold

And you're in love, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Ohh, you can hate me now
Cause I'll be gone
And I'll be with you or without

Oh, you'll keep shivering into the night
I can let you hold me
And tell each other that we might survive
If we keep it going

And you're in love, in love without me
So close your heart, you'll never find me
Ohh, you can hate me now
Cause I'll be gone
And I'll be with you or without

MEU CÉREBRO É MASSAGEADO QUANDO EU OUÇO ESSA MÚSICA

@UglyShadowChannel

Isn't it the perfect song after a sad breakup? I just ended a once perfect relationship based on nonsense and I let my heart ache just like that when I put this song on repeat.

@kaleisodaria9645
