Lyrics:
I don't have to leave anymore
What I have is right here
Spend my nights and days before
Searching the world for what's right here
Underneath and unexplored
Islands and cities I have looked
Here I saw
Something I couldn't over look
I am yours now
So now I don't ever have to leave
I've been found out
So now I'll never explore
See what I've done
That bridge is on fire
Going back to where I've been
I'm froze by desire
No need to leave
Where would I be
IF this were to go under
It's a risk I'd take
I'm froze by desire
As if a choice I'd make?

I actually like what she did with the song. She took a sad song and made it happy. And in the end, when you want to feel sad listen to the original. When you want to feel happy listen to this version. A cover is the artist's interpretation of a song he/she heard. She wanted to make it happy, so she did.

Lol at all the wankers whining that she 'ruined a classic' just because she's a popular artist. She's still talented, and her cover, while different, is good.
