You are everything to me

Are you the color?
Are you the eyes?
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Are you the color?
Are you the eyes?
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
As the very life of my dream,
you came to be
As a burden of memories,
you turned to be
To play with my shadow,
you arrived as a shadow
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Are you the melody?
Are you the gentle breeze?
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
In this make-believe world
that I created for you,
are only you and I real?
Is this the true nature of love?
Were all of yesterday's smiles just lies?
Is all of today's joy just a lie?
Saying all these lies are false,
if you leave me and go,
I will be left without life
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Are you the burden?
Are you the love?
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Are you the burden?
Are you the love?
You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Let all the sorrow go with me
Let this world become truly yours
Do not despair, do not grieve
I will never leave your side
You are everything to me
Chorus: You are everything to me
You are my whole life too
Chorus: You are my whole life too
Mmm... mmm... mmm...
