因你而在 – JJ Lin 林俊杰
作词:王雅君
作曲:林俊杰
编曲:Kenn C
我为你心跳 我为你祈祷
因为爱让我们能遇到
因为你开始燃烧 痛才慢慢治疗
我要和你拥抱 牵你的手一起去奔跑
你存在的这一秒 会不会是我依靠
给我的微笑 全都记在脑海了
变成快乐的符号
节奏在跳跃 这是恋爱的预兆
挑动我每一个细胞
天亮才睡觉 让我思绪都颠倒
这次我不想放掉
防备全关掉 只许你无理取闹
慢慢走近你的步调
心也一层一层被你融掉
一天一天为你开窍
一秒一秒想你的微笑
我为你心跳 我为你祈祷
因为爱让我们能遇到
因为你开始燃烧 痛才慢慢治疗
我要和你拥抱 牵你的手一起去奔跑
你存在的这一秒 会不会是我依靠
给我的微笑 全都记在脑海了
变成快乐的符号
节奏在跳跃 这是恋爱的预兆
挑动我每一个细胞
天亮才睡觉 让我思绪都颠倒
这次我不想放掉
防备全关掉 只许你无理取闹
慢慢走近你的步调
心也一层一层被你融掉
一天一天为你开窍 一秒一秒想你的微笑
我为你心跳 我为你祈祷
因为爱让我们能遇到
因为你开始燃烧 痛才慢慢治疗
我要和你拥抱 牵你的手一起去奔跑
你存在的这一秒 会不会是我依靠
