Like a poem gifted by God,
I look at you...
"What else do I need beyond this?"
I ask myself...
With my heart resting in your eyes,
gathering dreams every single day,
aren't you the second sky
for this girl now?
Oh talking rain,
shall I come and get drenched?
With soft flower petals,
shall I come and adorn you?
Like a shadow on the road,
shall I wander away?
Along with the evening moon,
shall I get lost?
Your eyes and my footsteps
are an endless journey,
a story that continues on...
Your teasing and my touch
are ocean waves that never fall silent.
As clouds drift along with the water,
even the sky does not know who they speak to on their way.
The lullaby that I sing...
have you become someone else today?
Won't my life live on because of you?
For me, just for me...
this is more than enough.
Your heart and my refuge
are the music of life that will never part.
Like water joining the root,
becoming one with each other,
I lost myself inside you like a seed.
In just those ten months,
I became a mother and everything to you,
and after that, I became you.
For me, just for me...
this is more than enough.
Like a poem gifted by God,
I look at you...
"What else do I need beyond this?"
I ask myself...
With my heart resting in your eyes,
gathering dreams every single day,
aren't you the second sky
for this girl now?
Oh talking rain,
shall I come and get drenched?
With soft flower petals,
shall I come and adorn you?
Like a shadow on the road,
shall I wander away?
Along with the evening moon,
shall I get lost?
