Where the blue of the night
Meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me

And the gold of her hair
Crowns the blue of her eyes
Like a halo tenderly

If only I could see her
Oh how happy I would be

Where the blue of the night

Meets the gold of the day
Someone waits for me

Where the blue of the night
At the place where the night sky appears blue

Meets the gold of the day
Where it blends with the golden-hued daytime sky

Someone waits for me
Someone is eagerly anticipating my arrival at this spot

And the gold of her hair
Looking on her hair that’s colored bright gold

Crowns the blue of her eyes
Accentuating her blue eyes like a crown

Like a halo tenderly
As if her hair is haloed around her face gently

If only I could see her
I wish I could be with her

Oh how happy I would be
It would bring me great joy and happiness
