Came like the day
Free like the wind
On a cold afternoon
With a shining look
Diamond shine
A warm heart
Like a whirlwind in me
Swept away the clouds
Of my loneliness
And I
I fell madly in love with you
Now I am
Much more than I know
To love someone
It's traveling to a land where nobody goes
To love someone
It's letting feelings flow
To be able to love
To love simply
You came whole
Came like the day
Free like the wind
On a cold afternoon
With a shining look
Diamond shine
A warm heart
Like a whirlwind in me
Swept away the clouds
Of my loneliness
And I
I fell madly in love with you
Now I am
Much more than I know
To love someone
It's traveling to a land where nobody goes
To love someone
It's letting feelings flow
To be able to love
To love simply
