Come into my arms,

and you know that love has made you strong,

then arms that wrap me around,

cover you from the world's unfriendly winter;

or hail or snow

 

come into my arms,

and realise that you are far

away from the world,

hear my heartbeat

and that is all you need

 

when you look into my eyes,

you no longer have to cry

but smile like infinity,

then you will know that love

has made you strong

the wrinkles of sorrow shall vanish

from your face,

then you'll know that love has

made you ever young

 

When you plunge into the deathbed

of the bermuda triangle,

my hands shall stretch forth in extreme

energy to reach for you,

then you'll know that love has made me strong,

and that I move with the muscles of the heart

 

By the power of your presence,

I shall weep no more,

sadness has my heart swept away,

ever since it found you

 

for you, I shall be as Benjamin Button,

transform from maturity to juvenity,

be as humble as a child,

longing for your milk,

I shall listen to the novels of your life

like a bedtime,

not fathoming the ambiguity of astrology,

not reasoning with equations,

they all wither before me,

your name is all I hear,

not fathoming anything else

your name shall be the only thing I know

 

And when the night looms

with a fiendish darkness and unfriendly

cold, I shall cuddle you with the stars,

because hope reigns

in the songs of our hearts

 

Take my lips to Eden,

with your divine

by a passion that encircles

us in the days of our hearts.
