Your eyes,
Your smile,
Your touch,
Gets me lost in translation.

Everything gets flipped in a good way,
Things begin to change,
My world starts spinning,
When your lips touch mine,
I lose the words I was about to speak,
Every action you make with me,
Gets lost in translation.

Keep it coming,
Don't you start walking away,
We got into this mess together,
You have turned into my world,
Nothing is normal when you are around,
My surroundings disappear,
You are the only real thing that I see,
Just everything you do,
The way you behave,
Gets me lost in translation.
