Armenia and the Eurovision Song Contest

Without your love
Drumming hearts
And your silent words of love,
They still remain
In the shades of night.
Will you go?
Will you ever save my storming soul?
I need to know.
Should I live, should I die
Without your love?
Should I smile, should I cry
Without your love?
Should I fall, should I fly
Without your love?
All I can is only living for you,
Breathing for you.

What I lose, what I find
Without your love?
What I say, what I hide
Without your love?
What I have in my mind
Without your love?
Tell me what I have to do?
Since I love you…
Fly with me,
Take my wings and dream away.
The stars will lead
To the heavens� way.
One�s for sure-
There�s a thousand ways
To say good-bye
What you decide?
Should I live, should I die
Without your love?
Should I smile, should I cry
Without your love?
Should I fall, should I fly
Without your love?
All I can is only living for you,
Breathing for you.

What I lose, what I find
Without your love?
What I say, what I hide
Without your love?
What I have in my mind
Without your love?
Tell me what I have to do?
Because I love you…
