Before...
did life mean anything before your day,
was I contented in my way?
Sweet feelings are stealing over me
I'm feeling this is how I want to be
Before...
was there no laughter here in sight?
my heart who chose your smile to play the part of sunshine
inside the world that is mine
now you're the only thing in my mind
You, you seem to know me very well
I have no reason to pretend
with you there is no emptiness of time
no mountains to climb
to prove what I am
Before...
there was this miracle of life in me
I can't explain that mystery without you
It's half a lifetime ago
now you are the only life that I know
You, you seem to know me very well
I have no reason to pretend
with you there is no emptiness of time
no mountains to climb
to prove what I am
Before there was this miracle of life in me
I can't explain that mystery without you
It's half a lifetime ago
now you are the only life that I know
now you are the only life that I know
