Do The Same
Your dreams will take you to the stars and back
one day you'll have the world at your feet
how does it feel to be so close to the top?
Your heart will be the envy of millions
thousands will call your name in admiration
but tell me now, that you won't forget the one
who admired you in your darkest hour
No I don't have the power
and I don't have the means
to take everything you've been through
like it has taught nothing
because I can see the teardrops
gliding down your cheeks
and even when you're quiet
I hear the pain as it screams
Oh, I just want to see you happy
your smile brings life to me
I want to do the same for you, my love
Your words will be the wisdom of our generation
those who brought you down will build you up
how does it feel to know that you're amazing?
Your life will be treasured by the billions
so many will listen to what you have to say
but tell me please, that you won't forget the girl
who listened when no one else would
No I don't have the power
and I don't have the means
to take everything you've been through
like it has taught nothing
because I can see the teardrops
gliding down your cheeks
and even when you're quiet
I hear the pain as it screams
Oh, I just want to see you happy
your smile brings life to me
I want to do the same for you, my love
No I'll never have the power
and I'll never have the means
to take everything you've been through
and say it is nothing
because I have dried the teardrops
gliding down your cheeks
and I've seen you be quiet
while your heart silently screams
Oh, I'll always try to make you happy
your smile bring life to me
I'll always do the same for you, my love
one day you'll have the world at your feet
how does it feel to be so close to the top?
Your heart will be the envy of millions
thousands will call your name in admiration
but tell me now, that you won't forget the one
who admired you in your darkest hour
No I don't have the power
and I don't have the means
to take everything you've been through
like it has taught nothing
because I can see the teardrops
gliding down your cheeks
and even when you're quiet
I hear the pain as it screams
Oh, I just want to see you happy
your smile brings life to me
I want to do the same for you, my love
Your words will be the wisdom of our generation
those who brought you down will build you up
how does it feel to know that you're amazing?
Your life will be treasured by the billions
