Text A Million Things To Tell You Ermal Meta
Unnamed I, Unnamed you
And talk until we no longer need a name
Without haste me, without haste you
We touch each other delicately
To understand a little more
We are like two stars who escaped the morning
If you stay close to me, nobody will turn it off
You will have my heart in rattles
For your headlight eyes
I took you on my shoulders
And I heard you fly
With your hands in the mud
To seek destiny
You become more beautiful with every breath you take
And you extend my life unknowingly
I have a million things to tell you, but I’m not saying anything
In a sea of happy days my mind drowns
And I have a million things to tell you
But I’m not saying anything
But I’m not saying anything
Your journey I, my station you
And find that you love yourself
It’s harder than loving each other a little more
It is my hand that you hold, do not worry
And if I can’t get up I’ll stay with you on the ground
You’ll have my rattle heart for your headlight eyes
We will make it enough
We will make it enough
With my hands in the mud to seek destiny
You become more beautiful with every breath you take
And you extend my life unknowingly
I have a million things to tell you, but I’m not saying anything
In a sea of happy days my mind drowns
I have a million things to tell you
Just a million things to tell you
I give you my rattle heart for your headlight eyes
And without telling anyone
We will learn to fly
You extend my life unknowingly
I have a million things to tell you, but I’m not saying anything
In a sea of happy days my mind drowns
And I have a million things to tell you
But I’m not saying anything
But I’m not saying anything
Rattle heart me
Eyes on you
