Oh
Little love
Hold me down
I've had enough
Oh
Falling fast and screaming loud
I'm finding ways to drown it out
I'm hoping you can hold me down
People change
Start falling in and out of pairs
For now it all just really hurts
And I need you to hold my...
Oh (Oh bhai barish kitni tez ho rahi hai)
Little love
Hold me down
I've had enough (Bhai khidki band karde, sara paani andar araha hai)
Yeah
Mein na hu khafa
Ye khamosh samah
Ankhon mein pani nasha
Mein kuch bheega zara
Koi sambhalo mujhe
Pyaar hai shatir saza
Thoda sa khumaar
Thodi umeede tabah
Hai kuch kehna baki
Toh mujhe kehde zara
Saya mein tera bana
Par na mein kaid khada
Hawa jo thi chali
To pata tera chala
Badal yaha bhi the
Kya Badal the bhi waha
Barish hui yaha
Kya barish hui waha
Mein jab bhi roya idhar
Kya Tu bhi royi waha
Bundo ne bola suna
Jo tune na tha kaha
Rehna chup tera
Bhi lage meri khataa
Kya mein hu itna bura
Fir mujhko na tu sata
Bhatka tha yaha waha
Mein leke tera pataa
Tere liye mein suna
Tere liye mein lada
Abhi bhale hu door
Par tere liye mein khada
Badal garze jo saare
Kya kabhi rote hai vo
Milte jo bhi hai upar
Kya paake khote hai vo
Haan pani barsa jaha
Mein bheega waha khada
Girte rahe ansu
Toh kyu samjha na tu
Sukhe khade the vo
Chao mein ruke the vo
Chaow se dekhe mujhe
Chaho toh kehde mujhe
Manjil toh tu bhi thi
Par kyu naraz thi tu
Chaho toh kehke dekho
Par chup awaz thi vo
Ye bunde barse bhi jo
Meri ankhon mein kuch
Ye bunde dhundhe kabhi
In rahon mein kuch
Nikle raton mein kuch
Kisi ke baaton mein kuch
Ye manjil sundar phool toh
Haath lage katon mein kuch
Ye bunde barse bhi jo
Meri ankhon mein kuch
Ye bunde dhundhe kabhi
In rahon mein kuch
Nikle raton mein kuch
Kisi ke baaton mein kuch
Ye manjil sundar phool toh
Haath lage katon mein kuch
Oh
Falling fast and screaming loud
I'm finding ways to drown it out
I'm hoping you can hold me down
People change
Start falling in and out of pairs
For now it all just really hurts
And I need you to hold my hand
Ye bunde barse bhi jo
Meri ankhon mein kuch
Ye bunde dhundhe kabhi
In rahon mein kuch
Nikle raton mein kuch
Kisi ke baaton mein kuch
Ye manjil sundar phool toh
Haath lage katon mein kuch
Ye bunde barse bhi jo
Meri ankhon mein kuch
Ye bunde dhundhe kabhi
In rahon mein kuch
Nikle raton mein kuch
Kisi ke baaton mein kuch




Ye manjil sundar phool toh
Haath lage katon mein kuch
