When you tilt your head and look at me,
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When our shadows walk together side by side,
Oh my, hey-eh-eh...
As our eyes speak to each other,
As our fingers speak to each other,
Oh my, what else is left to say?
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When our shadows walk together side by side,
Oh my, hey-eh-eh...
Searching for a woman just like my mother,
I found you...
Oh, a man who is both a father and a friend,
I found in you...
The beautiful kolam (rice-flour patterns) you draw,
My doorstep keeps asking for it...
Time itself will come and draw those patterns...
Just looking into your eyes, I travel to a past life...
Where you and I are already one...
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When our shadows walk together side by side,
Oh my, hey-eh-eh...
In the lovely way you wave your hands as you talk,
Even a lie becomes the truth...
The scent of your hair drifting across my chest,
Does something wondrous to me...
Your feet stepping into my home... this is enough for a lifetime...
Why are we still keeping such a distance?
With no one watching and leaving no trace,
I will kill you with my love...
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When our shadows walk together side by side,
Oh my, hey-eh-eh...
As our eyes speak to each other,
As our fingers speak to each other,
Oh my, what else is left to say?
When you tilt your head and look at me,
Oh my, hey-eh...
When our shadows walk together side by side,
Oh my, hey-eh-eh...
