Oh my, oh my!
An angel like you, hey,
Until this day,
My eyes had never seen!
For both of us to share our desires,
Isn't this the right time?
In your breathtaking beauty, bit by bit,
I dissolve every single day.
...
Oh my, oh my!
An angel like you, hey,
Until this day,
My eyes had never seen!
Morning and evening,
We will wander holding hands,
Spend our time just talking,
And rest in the lap of smiles.
Half of you and half of me,
We will discover the rest when we unite.
We will walk leaning on shoulders,
And completely forget to sleep.
Closing our eyes,
We will search for ourselves,
On the moonlit street,
We will run around like children.
Without parting even for a second,
We will love without an end in sight.
Oh my, oh my!
An angel like you, hey,
Until this day,
My eyes had never seen!
For both of us to share our desires,
Isn't this the right time?
In your breathtaking beauty, bit by bit,
I dissolve every single day.
...
Yeah... ah...
