Amerie - I Just Died Lyrics

Starin' in the mirror as I
Start to carefully contemplate
Just really how deep is this thing I have for you
It's wearin' on my heart
And from the start you know I tried, steadily denied

Friendship turned to love
I know you probably think that I'm so strange
Stutterin' 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

I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody 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 movin', oh, so closely
Killin' me so softly, so softly, I just died

I just died in your arms tonight
Don't want nobody 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
