Returning to my home
Will you forget the pain?
And see the moon, the moon
Melting
Oh, dearest of all loved ones
We'll do wonders
The nights become sweeter, the nights
Distances and longing kill us
And the heart yearns, it wishes
It's been a while since we embraced
How much do we miss you, baby?
Distances and longing kill us
And the heart yearns, it wishes
It's been a while since we embraced
How much do we miss you, baby?
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
The nights become sweeter, the nights
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
The nights become sweeter, the nights
Oh, traveler
Sorry for the distance, sorry
Missing you, I know
You'll find me with you, always, always
Standing at your door, standing
Lost in your lips
And the words go on and on and on
Distances and longing kill us
And the heart yearns, it wishes
It's been a while since we embraced
How much do we miss you, baby?
Distances and longing kill us
And the heart yearns, it wishes
It's been a while since we embraced
How much do we miss you, baby?
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
The nights become sweeter, the nights
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
The nights become sweeter, the nights
A plane to you
We'll bring you closer to me
My soul and your soul
We'll meet, oh my love
A plane to you
We'll bring you closer to me
My soul and your soul
We'll meet, oh my love
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
Oh, traveler, oh traveler, reassure me about you, remember me
I'm still your lover, waiting for you
The nights become sweeter, the nights
