Lyrics
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 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
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 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 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 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
You're taking over me
Taking over me
