[English]

I'm returning

Returning to my home

Will you forget the pain?

And see the moon, the moon

Melting

Oh, dearest of all loved ones

We'll do wonders

The nights become sweeter, the nights

Distances and longing kill us

And the heart yearns, it wishes

It's been a while since we embraced

How much do we miss you, baby?

Distances and longing kill us

And the heart yearns, it wishes

It's been a while since we embraced

How much do we miss you, baby?

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

The nights become sweeter, the nights

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

The nights become sweeter, the nights

Oh, traveler

Sorry for the distance, sorry

Missing you, I know

You'll find me with you, always, always

Standing at your door, standing

Lost in your lips

And the words go on and on and on

Distances and longing kill us

And the heart yearns, it wishes

It's been a while since we embraced

How much do we miss you, baby?

Distances and longing kill us

And the heart yearns, it wishes

It's been a while since we embraced

How much do we miss you, baby?

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

The nights become sweeter, the nights

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

The nights become sweeter, the nights

A plane to you

We'll bring you closer to me

My soul and your soul

We'll meet, oh my love

A plane to you

We'll bring you closer to me

My soul and your soul

We'll meet, oh my love

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

The nights become sweeter, the nights

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you

Oh, traveler

Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me

I'm still your lover, waiting for you
