I wish the world could see you like I do
You're the best friend I ever knew
I wish they knew how my heart beats for you
You're the reason I survive
But when I look into your eyes

All the little things you do
Made me go crazy for you

Walk out my dreams, be next to me and fulfill my needs

Lock in a key
Living in a castle of love

Never had anyone who cares like you
You've always been the one who gave me comfort
Confidence in my time of need
