Lyrics

I Just Died

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Staring in the mirror as I

Start to carefully contemplate

Just really how deep is this thing I have for you

It's wearing on my heart

And from the start you know I tried, steadily denied

Friendship turn to love

I know you probably think that I'm so strange -

Stuttering on every word when you look my way, why?

And maybe it's all in my mind

But when we hugged goodbye I had butterflies

I just died (yeah yeah yeah)

I just died in your arms tonight

Don't want nobody to 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

Your finger touched 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

Your embrace, thoughts won't erase

Every now a minute of the day I wait and hope and pray

That you might stay

And now you're moving oh so closely

Killing me so softly, so softly

I just died

I just died in your arms tonight

Don't want nobody to 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

I just died in your arms tonight

Don't want nobody to 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

[Musical interlude]

I just died in your arms tonight

Don't want nobody to 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

I just died in your arms tonight

Don't want nobody to 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
