[English]

Lie with me
By the fire
We can be
Safe from the storms up high
There’s a winter ahead
If it’s cold and wet
We’re always warm here side by side
Come what may
Change of heart
Who can say
If you look in my eyes
For the moon and the stars
Hearing strumming guitars
Well, I admit that it’d be nice
I’ll be with you
Until the spring runs by
And the summer starts to burn
I’ll be with you
When the autumn wind returns
Don't you want to say you’ll stay?
Lie with me
By the fire
We can be
Safe from the storms up high
There’s a winter ahead
Whether it’s cold and wet
We’re always warm in paradise
Paradise
I’ll be with you
Until the spring runs by
And the summer starts to burn
And I’ll be with you
When autumn returns
Yes, when all the seasons turn
Come what may
Change of heart
Who can say
If you look in my eyes
For the truth in my heart
From a world far apart
You’ll realize where you can find
Paradise
Para...
Paradise
Paradise
