I Just Died

Amerie

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
