One life


All I wanna be
Is with you in your arms
In our room living small, in a big house
I've been having dreams

Have you had them too?
I see me and you
By the door, rushing in from the rain at the back of the garden
Can you see that too?

Forever ain't forever if we're not together
I don't wanna put a lot of pressure on you
I just wanna tell you, I just wanna tell you
Without you I don't know what I'd do

I could never do this on my own
I've only got one life and I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go
Oh bury my body or send it down the river (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own

Sometimes I get sad
At the front, at the back
In the middle of the happiest moments
'Cause good things can turn bad

Easily
And I don't wanna slow down
Wanna jump, wanna fly, wanna fall
I wanna hit the ground running
Do you wanna marry me?

'Cause I've only got one life and I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go
Oh, bury my body or send it down the river (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own

No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life alone
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do this on my own

Forever ain't forever if we're not together
I don't wanna put a lot of pressure on you
I just wanna tell you, I just wanna tell you
Without you I don't know what I'd do

'Cause we only get one try
I don't wanna miss it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go, oh
'Cause I've only got one life

And I want you in it (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
Tell me that you'll never let me go
Oh bury my body or send it down the river (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own

'Cause life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you
No, life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life alone (Woah, oh)
Life ain't a life, ain't a life, ain't a life without you (Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
I could never do it on my own

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
