Lyrics

Never thought that this could be
Love like this was not for me
Now I see exquisitely
When I close my eyes

Yours is not a beauty found
Calling out without a sound
Sing to me so peacefully
When I close my eyes

Chorus:
Waiting for so long to be
Your lover forever
Love that won't decide
Just be our guide

When I thought I'd run away
You, alone, could make me stay
Kissing me eternally
When I close my eyes

Repeat chorus

There you stood in front of me
Telling me that I was free
Free to love you endlessly
When I close my eyes

I say yes so willingly
Open up my eyes
