Words / Lyrics
As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all
Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to?
(Refrão)
I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you (yeah)
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song I look to you
(Verso 2)
About to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door
And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head
(Refrão)
I look to you
I look to you (yeah)
And when all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you (oh yeah)
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song
I look to you
(Coro)
My love is all broken (oh Lord)
My walls have come (coming down on me)
crumbling down on me (All the rain is falling)
The rain is falling (hoo!)
Defeat is calling (set me free)
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you to shine on me
(Refrão)
I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you (yeah)
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song
I look to you (yeah)
I look to you
I look to you...
As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I'm lost without a cause
After giving it my all
Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to?
(Refrão)
I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you (yeah)
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song I look to you
(Verso 2)
About to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door
And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head
(Refrão)
I look to you
I look to you (yeah)
And when all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you (oh yeah)

Tradução (Letra)
Eu Olho Para VocêAo me deitar
O céu me ouve agora
Estou perdida sem uma causa
Depois de dar o meu melhor
As tempestades de Inverno vieram
E escureceram meu sol
Depois de tudo que passei
A quem posso me voltar?
(Refrão)
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
Quando toda a minha força se vai
Em você posso ser forte
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
E quando as melodias se foram
Em você ouço uma canção, eu olho você
(Verso 2)
A ponto de perder minha respiração
Não há porque lutar
Afundando cada vez mais
Procurando por aquela porta aberta
E cada caminho que ando
Me leva ao arrependimento
E eu não sei se vou conseguir
Nada a fazer, senão levantar a minha cabeça
(Refrão)
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você (Sim)
Quando toda a minha força se vai
Em você posso ser forte
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
E quando as melodias se foram
Em você ouço uma canção
Eu olho para você
(Coro)
O meu amor foi todo destruído (oh Senhor)
Meus muros estão se desfazendo (caíndo sobre mim)
Desmoronando sobre mim (a chuva está caindo)
A tempestade está caindo (hoo!)
A derrota me chamando (me liberte)
Preciso de você para me libertar
Me leve para longe da batalha
Preciso de você para brilhar sobre mim
(Refrão)
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
Quando toda a minha força se vai
Em você posso ser forte
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
E quando as melodias se foram
Em você ouço uma canção
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você
Eu olho para você...
