[English]
If love lets us go
The ground will fall apart
And time will change us
I will always be here
The flame will go out
If age doesn't forgive
When you no longer hear me sing
I won't leave this place
If you think of me
Like I think of you
Then we have everything
To dream again
If you say yes
I know where to go
What are we waiting for to want to be just you and me again
If the light fades
And one day it’s too much to give
And our gaze no longer crosses
I’ll stay here
But love has already left us
And the world has fallen apart
But time hasn't changed
What you meant to me
If you think of me
Like I think of you
Then we have everything
To dream again
If you say yes
I know where to go
What are we waiting for to want to be just you and me again
Just you and me
Just you and me
Just you and me
And then we show
That nothing is built
Without first having had
Done wrong in trying
If you think of me
Like I think of you
Then we have everything
To dream again
If you say yes
I know where to go
What are we waiting for to want to be just you and me again
Just you and me
Just you and me
Just you and me
