I wake up to find myself After all these years And though all this time has gone It still seems so unclear 'Cause there's no one else, Since I found you I know its been so hard You should know If I die tomorrow As the minutes fade away I can't remember Have I said all I can say? Your my everything You make me feel so alive If I die tomorrow It brings out the worst in me When your not around I miss the sound of your voice The silence seems so loud 'Cause there's no one else, Since I found you I know its been so hard You should know If I die tomorrow As the minutes fade away I can't remember Have I said all I can say? Your my everything You make me feel so alive If I die tomorrow I spent all my life Looking for our innocence I've got nothing to lose One thing to prove I won't make the same mistakes And now I know That everything will be okay If I die tomorrow If I die tomorrow As the minutes fade away I can't remember Have I said all I can say? Your my everything You make me feel so alive Your my everything You make me feel so alive If I die tomorrow If I die tomorrow
