Lyrics
Verse 1:
You've given me a reason to walk away before,
It's raining hard this season, harder than before,
I only want to be with you...
I only want to be with you.
It's impossible to leave you after all these years,
I'm so lost without you, my tears are filled with fears.
I only want to be with you...
I only want to be with you.
Hook:
I only want to be with you...
I only want to be with you.
I'll give you just one chance, and we can find romance
I only want to be with you.
Verse 2
Shameful and disgracefull wash the sins away,
Painful and regretful, I feel it more each day.
I only want to be with you...
I only want to be with you.
All the complications, the grey between the lines,
History can teach us, I'm looking for the signs.
I only want to be with you...
I only want to be with you.
