Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Staring in the mirror as I
Start to carefully contemplate
Just really how deep is this thing I have for you?
It's wearin' on my heart
And from the start, you know I tried
Steadily deny
[Verse 2]
Friendship turn to love
I know you probably think that I'm so strange
Stutterin' on every word when you look my way, why?
And maybe it's all in my mind
But when we hug goodbye, butterflies
I just died, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
[Verse 4]
Your fingers hushed my lips
As I tried to explain maybe why you and I
Should hide from such a love affair
My friends think that I'm so insane
To fight this feeling
But my life's at stake
[Verse 5]
Your embrace, thoughts won't erase
Every hour, minute of the day
I'm waiting, hope and pray
That you might stay
And now you're movin', oh, so closely
Killin' me so softly, so softly I just died
[Verse 6]
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
(Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 7]
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
(I just died in your arms tonight)
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
[Verse 8]
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
[Verse 9]
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
[Verse 10]
I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody bring me back to life
I just died in your arms tonight, hey
I just died in your arms
I just died in your arms tonight, tonight
