(Intro: Lady Gaga)

Where you and I had to say goodbye

And I don’t know what all this means

But since I survived, I have realized

Wherever you go, I will follow you

Nobody promised tomorrow

So I will love you every night like it’s the last night

As if it were the last night

(Choir: Bruno Mars)

If the world were to end

I want to be next to you

If the party were over

And our time on earth was over

I just want to hold you for a while

And die with a smile

If the world were to end

I want to be next to you

(After choir: Lady Gaga)

I don’t want to do this anymore

Because you already know what you mean to me

Nobody promised tomorrow

So I will love you every night like it’s the last night

As if it were the last night

If the world were to end

I want to be next to you

If the party were over

And our time on earth was over

Next to you

Close to you

I want to be next to you

If the party were over

And our time on earth was over

I want to hold you just for a while

If the world were to end

I want to be next to you

If the world were to end

I want to be next to you
