Dum Dum Lyrics
What should I do to never fall in love again?
One stupid question, with no answer in the end
I try to stay out of the same affection's chain
But I find myself fall-fallin’ in love again
And I tried to reset my mind
Change what I feel inside
You change the winter into summertime
I can’t with those butterflies
Who cares if love is blind?
Now that you came around, can’t live without you
You make my heart go dum-dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum, du-du-dum, dum, dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum, du-du-dum-du-du
Dum-dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum (You make my)
Dum, dum, dum, dum (My heart go)
Dum, dum, dum, dum (You make my heart go)
Dum-dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Dum-dum, dum-dum
Dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum, dum
Dum-dum, dum-dum
Do you believe in things like "planets have aligned"
In that perfection when two destinies collide?
You lose control and then emotions multiply
Can try to run, but it's too late to hide
And I tried to reset my mind
Change what I feel inside
You change the winter into summertime
I can’t with those butterflies
Who cares if love is blind?
Now that you came around, can’t live without you
