LYRICS

I saw you talking on the phone
I know that you are not alone
But you steal my heart away
Yeah you steal my heart away

You’re acting like you’re on your own
But I saw you standing with a girl
Stop tryn’ to steal my heart away,
Stop tryn’ to steal my heart away

I don’t know where we going
I don’t know who we are

I can feel your heartbeat … x2
He said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running thorugh me
Feel your heartbeat
She said
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running through me
Heartbeat
Feel your heartbeat

Maybe it’s the way you move
You got me dreaming like a fool
That I can steal your heart away
I can steal your heart away

No matter what it is you think
I’m not the kind of girl you think
And give my heart away
Stop tryin’ steal my heart away

I don’t know where we going
I don’t know who we are

I can feel your heartbeat
He said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
He said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running through me
Heartbeat
Feel your heartbeat
She said
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running through me

Stop stealling my heart away … x3
You’re stealling my heart away

I don’t know where we going
I don’t know who we are
Feels like we are flowing
High above the stars, the stars, the stars, the stars …

I can feel your heartbeat
He said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
He said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running through me x2
I can feel your heartbeat
She said
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
She said to me
I can feel your heartbeat
Running through me
Heartbeat
Feel your heartbeat

TRASLATION INTO SPANISH/ TRADUCCIÓN AL ESPAÑOL


Quizá necesito un poco de rehabilitación, o tal vez sólo necesita dormir un poco
Tengo una obsesión enferma, estoy viendo en mis sueños
Estoy mirando hacia abajo cada callejón, estoy haciendo nosotros desesperada porque
Me quedo despierto toda la noche esperando y golpeando mi cabeza contra la pared

¿Qué tienes que es difícil de encontrar
Pienso en ello todo el tiempo
Estoy enganchado, se fríe mi corazón
No puedo sacarte de mi mente

Porque tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor
Me dijo tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor

No va a escuchar cualquier consejo
Mamá me dice que debo pensar dos veces
Pero el amor a mis propios dispositivos
Soy adicto, que es una crisis

Mis amigos creen que me he vuelto loco
Mis juicios conseguir un poco confuso
Mi estima va a ser afectada
Si lo guardo como un cracker enamorado

Porque tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor
Me dijo tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor

No me importa lo que digan
La prisa vale la pena el precio que pago
Me siento tan alto, cuando estás conmigo
Pero accidente y anhelan cuando te vas

Hey, así que tengo que pregunta
¿Quieres tener una fiesta de pijamas en mi sótano?
¿Quieres que sea caliente, latía como un 808 tambor?
Es mi amor con su droga?
Su medicamento, uh su medicamento
Uh su medicamento es mi amor, su medicamento

Porque tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor
Me dijo tu amor tu amor tu amor es mi droga
Tu amor tu amor tu amor

Hey ... eso?
Tu amor tu amor tu amor, es mi droga
(hablado) "Me gusta la barba"
