[English]

Tell me, tell me a secret

And I will share some of mine

My steps led to your doorsteps

Your doorsteps soon became mine

This home is where my heart is

My heart is where we both live

I'm sorry for acting so silly

Sometimes it gets in the way

But I'm standing by your side No matter what may...

...tempt me not to get by

I'll slip to fit into your dreams

And I'll dream until I'm put to sleep

This breath is yet one less

I keep saying yes and nothing less

Whatever little time there is left

I want to share it You make it worth it

I want to share it with you
