Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just hold me close (hold me close)
You keep me afloat (keep me)
With you I feel stronger, oh
Just imagine all the little things we could do
Just imaging if I put my trust in you
Oh I, oh I
You still give me butterflies
My lullaby, you are everything I wanted
When you see me running, run after me don't let me go
Just imagine all the little things we could do
Just imagine if I put my trust in you
Oh I, oh I
Run after me
If my heads in the clouds (no, no, no, no, no, no)
I don't want to come down
So if it's really real
Tell me that you feel the same
I don't really understand
You've been on my mind
And I can't lie when I say I couldn't run (oh I)
Oh I
'Cause you are my universe, my everything, my sunset
You still give me butterflies
My lullaby, you are everything I wanted
When you see me running, run after me don't let me go (don't let me go)
No, no
Just imagine all the little things we could do
Just imagine if I put my trust in you
Oh I, oh I
My universe, my everything, my sunset
You still give me butterflies, oh
Everything I wanted
When you see me running, run after me
