[English]

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

I kiss the morning goodbye

But down inside, you know we never know why

The road is narrow and long

When eyes meet eyes, and the feeling is strong

I turn away from the wall

I stumble and fall, but I give you it all

I am a woman in love

And I'll do anything to get you into my world

And hold you within

It's a right I defend

Over and over again

What do I do?

...

With you eternally mine

In love, there is no measure of time

We planned it all at the start

That you and I, live in each other's hearts

We may be oceans away

You feel my love, I hear what you say

No truth is ever a lie

I stumble and fall, but I give you it all

I am a woman in love

And I'll do anything to get you into my world

And hold you within

It's a right I defend

Over and over again

What do I do?

...

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I am a woman in love

And I'm talking to you

You know I know how you feel

What a woman can do

It's a right I defend

Over and over again

I am a woman in love

And I'll do anything

To get you into my world

And hold you within

It's a right I'll defend

Over and over again

...
