I have nothing in life if you're not here
How I miss you, my love, what can I do?
I miss you so much I’m going to go crazy
Sometimes I think you’ll never come
But I love you and I have to wait for you
It’s destiny, it leads me to the end
Where one day, my love, you will find me
Oh, divine love
You have to come back soon
How I miss you
I have nothing in life if you're not here
How I miss you
I miss you so much I’m going to go crazy
Sometimes I think you’ll never come
But I love you and I have to wait for you
It’s destiny, it leads me to the end
Where one day, my love, you will find me
Oh, divine love
You have to come back soon
The pain is strong, I can bear it
Because I keep thinking of your love
I want to see you, hold you and kiss you
And give you all my heart
Oh, divine love
You have to come back soon
Oh, divine love
You have to come back soon
