Lyrics

English

What I remember is your voice
It was you who gave me back my choice
All I wanted was one more day
It was in the rain you found the way

(What I need... it was you...)
What I need is not the gold or crown
It was your hand that pulled me from the ground

What I remember is you
It was you who saved me
All I want is you
It was you who made me
What I remember is you

The reason why I stayed was you
The place where we met is where I grew
What you did was hold the light
It was then I knew that it was right

All I ever asked was to be near
It was your song that I could hear
What I learned is love will stay
It was you who showed me the way

What I remember. It was you. All I want.
The thing I'll never lose — it's you, the one.

What I remember is you.

Türkçe

Hatırladığım şey senin sesin
Seçimimi bana geri veren sendin
Tek istediğim bir gün daha idi
Yolu yağmurda buldun

(İhtiyacım olan... o sendin...)
İhtiyacım olan altın ya da taç değil
Beni yerden kaldıran senin elindi

Hatırladığım şey sensin
Beni kurtaran sendin
Tek istediğim sensin
Beni var eden sendin
Hatırladığım şey sensin

Kalmamın sebebi sendin
Tanıştığımız yer, büyüdüğüm yer
Yaptığın şey ışığı tutmaktı
Doğru olduğunu işte o zaman bildim

Tek dilediğim yakında olmaktı
Duyabildiğim senin şarkındı
Öğrendiğim şey: aşk kalıcıdır
Bana yolu gösteren sendin

Hatırladığım şey. O sendin. Tek istediğim.
Asla kaybetmeyeceğim şey — o sensin, tek sen.

Hatırladığım şey sensin.
