I was nothing before, still I stand here today
As a keeper of dreams, till the night fades away
Je l'aime à mourir
You can tell me again, all the reasons to leave
But with a touch of her hand, she can make me believe
That I belong here, yes I belong here
Je l'aime à mourir
Not a moment ago, I was only a man
But she fills me with more, in a way no one can
Je l'aime à mourir
When she catches my eye, all the light from the sun
Seems to wither and die, next to all she's become
I am without fear, and I would die here
Je l'aime à mourir
It isn't fair, you know
Why should I care?
There are a million just like me
It isn't fair, you know
Why should she care,
And live to be, the world to me
She is all I've become, she is all that I need
And she makes me feel one, with the air that I breathe
Je l'aime à mourir
Though sometimes we're apart, though sometimes I'm astray
It's the beat of her heart, in the music I play
That keeps me sincere, through all these long years
Je l'aime à mourir
I could cry for her eyes, like a child in the cold
And I will live by her side, till the day I am old
Je l'aime à mourir
When you find someone strong, someone inside your heart
And when she takes you beyond, "until death do us part"
You'll know what I mean, why I would die here
Je l'aime à mourir
It isn't fair, you know
Why should I care?
There are a million just like me
It isn't fair, you know
Why should she care?
And live to be, the world to me
I was nothing before, still I stand here today
As a keeper of dreams, till the night fades away
Je l'aime à mourir
You can tell me again, all the reasons to leave
But with a touch of her hand, she can make me believe
That I belong here, and I will die here
Je l'aime à mourir
