Lyrics

Fallen Version

You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who can decide what they dream?
And dream I do

[I believe] I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
[I believe] I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know
And all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me, then

[I believe] I believe in you [I believe in you]
I'll give up everything just to find you
[I believe] I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

I look in the mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

[I believe] I believe in you [I believe in you]
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

Taking over me
You're taking over me
Taking over me
Taking over me

Demo Version #1

You don't remember me but I remember you
I lie awake and try so hard not to think of you
But who [who] can [can] decide what they dream?
And dream I do

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
[I believe] I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

Have you forgotten all I know
And all we had?
You saw me mourning my love for you [mourning my love for you]
And touched my hand
I knew you loved me, then

[I believe] I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
[I believe] I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

I look in a mirror and see your face
If I look deep enough
So many things inside that are just like you are taking over

I believe in you
I'll give up everything just to find you
I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

[I believe] I believe in you [I believe in you]
I'll give up everything just to find you
[I believe] I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me

[I believe] I believe in you
You're taking over me

I have to be with you to live, to breathe
You're taking over me
