Born on the wrong side of the ocean With all the tides against you You never thought you'd be much good for anyone But that's so far from the truth I know there's pain in your heart And you're covered in scars Wish you could see what I do 'Cause baby, everything you are Is everything I need You're everything to me Baby, every single part Is who you're meant to be 'Cause you were meant for me And you're everything I need You can say I'm wrong You can turn your back against me But I am here to stay (I am here to stay) Like the sea She keeps kissing the shoreline No matter how many times he pushes her away 'Cause baby, everything you are Is everything I need You're everything to me Baby, every single part Is who you're meant to be 'Cause you were meant for me And everything happens for a reason It's all a blessing in disguise I used to question who I was But now I see The answer's in your eyes 'Cause baby, everything you are Is everything I need You're everything to me Baby, every single part Is who you're meant to be 'Cause you were meant for me And you're everything I need

Tipping toeing down your spine when everyone's around Kiss me hard, forget them judging eyes Who cares about what is to come, no, I don't fear the night Let's show 'em what it is to be alive If nothing is for keeps, can I keep you just for a minute? I don't know what's real, but I really wanna feel you now Get a little too close, can I stop your heart for a moment? If I don't even care, is that really such a crime? If I don't even care, is that really such a crime? If I don't even care, is that really such a crime?
