Close your eyes
Give me your hand darling
Do you feel my heart beating
Do you understand

Am i only dreaming? Is this burning an eternal flame
I believe its ment to be darling
I watch you when you wrre sleeping
You belong to me

Am i only dreaming? Or is this burning
Say my name
Sunshines through the rain
Oh life so lonely
Now come on ease the pain
I dont want to lose this feeling
Ahhh haaa
