For some reason, my song
searches for your music.
Without a single word or warning,
it sings of you.
She is sweet like music,
soothing like a gentle breeze.
My breath carries only your fragrance.
For some reason, my song
searches for your music.
Without a single word or warning,
it sings of you.
As a woman,
I discovered who I truly am.
Slowly, by your side,
I stood still in time.
Even from far away,
the moment I heard your voice,
as if you were close enough to touch,
my soul blossomed.
I feel like wings soaring across the cloudy sky.
Because of you, through your eyes,
my grace blossoms.
All on its own, my heart
becomes completely yours.
