Like a fish caught on a hook, I am
right here...
Shall I confess my love?
Oh dream, is what I adore
a reflection of pure beauty,
or a wandering spark of life?
Oh my heart, when I look at you,
is it like warm sunlight sweeping over me?
Is this a state beyond understanding?
You completely won me over,
you stole my breath away,
you are my endless search in this world.
Right before my eyes,
do not fade away.
I am frozen because of you; you are everything to me.
What were you searching for,
as you swam in the river of my eyes?
I, too, gently soared,
the moment you arrived.
Oh beautiful one, without my knowing,
you conquered my heart,
and stood before me every moment.
All my anger falls away,
whenever you are by my side.
Oh flower, you are my beloved companion.
Will love speak?
Will love take hold?
Will love win?
Will love speak?
Will love take hold?
Will love win...?
Over there, over here, where am I?
Can a dry leaf turn green again by your side?
Shall I sing a familiar little line,
about the way two deep-rooted hearts unite?
Coming close to you,
I just stood and gazed.
Thinking only of you,
my heart beats all day long.
You were not gentle with me,
nor did you say a word.
Will love ever give
any proof of it?
What were you searching for,
as you swam in the river of my eyes?
I, too, gently soared,
the moment you arrived.
Will love speak?
Will love take hold?
Will love win?
Will love speak?
Will love take hold?
Will love win...?
