Verse 1 We knew each other before the whys me with worn-out shoes and my heart already yours we laughed out loud only big dreams and dirty hands In the schoolyard you said “stay”, I said “I’m not going away” we knew nothing about love but love already knew about us Pre-Chorus And while time watched us grow I was falling in love with you without even knowing Chorus We were just children, then in a heartbeat something more we were two destinies that crossed their paths Us, forever us, you are my home, you are my trouble too If the world falls, I’ll find you through a thousand lives I’d still choose us again Us, forever us, as long as heaven knows only death will tear us apart Verse 2 The long silences, the first “what ifs” your name written into freedom a stolen kiss, and a heart that runs faster than our age We made mistakes, learned how to stay to say everything without running away we were a forever with the hunger to learn Pre-Chorus And while time watched us grow I was falling in love with you without even knowing Chorus We were just children, then in a heartbeat something more we were two destinies that crossed their paths Us, forever us, you are my home, you are my trouble too If the world falls, I’ll find you through a thousand lives I’d still choose us again Us, forever us, as long as heaven knows only death will tear us apart Bridge (emotional break) And when we’ll be tired, my love with our hands full of yesterday I promise you the same song the same road, the same direction Final Chorus (higher) We were just children, then in a heartbeat something more we were two destinies that crossed their paths Us, forever us, you are my home, you are my trouble too If the world falls, I’ll find you through a thousand lives I’d still choose us again Us, forever us, as long as heaven knows only death will tear us apart If time asks what will remain I’ll say your name and the truth Us, forever us, beyond darkness and light until death leads us on… we’ll still be us Pre-Chorus / Outro And while time watched us grow I was falling in love with you without even knowing If time asks what will remain I’ll say your name and the truth Us, forever us, beyond darkness and light until death leads us on… we’ll still be us only and always us
