[English]

Why do I have to wait so long

Before you come into my life again?

Seems as though forever until

I can be here by your side 'til then

I think you feel the same way too

You know you make my dreams come true

If you'll just turn on your light

Let me see it shining through the night

...

When I'm far away from here

I'll hold all the memories so clear

If I only have the choice

I would stay, so let me hear your voice

I think you feel the same way too

You know you make my dreams come true

If you'll just turn on your light

Let me see it shining through the night

...

Turn on your light

Let me see it shining through the night

Turn on your light

Let me see it shining through the night

...
