Longing for you,
I came searching for you,
and I forget myself...
all because of love.
Hey my life, to rest on your shoulder,
come running to me.
With the pain of love,
my heart aches.
Just to die
resting on your lap,
I am still
staying alive, staying alive.
Oh my angel...
Longing for you,
I came searching for you,
and I forget myself,
all because of love.
Longing for you,
I came searching for you,
and I forget myself...
all because of love.
Oho ho ho ho
