Текст песни
I well recall that day, so bright, so tender,
When first your face appeared before my sight.
Since then, like shadow, near you I surrender,
In you I find a beauty, pure and tender—
Such grace I've never met in other's light.
Into your eyes I gaze so deep, so true,
We both perceive—my heart belongs to you.
Yet why it beats this way, I never knew,
And so, for now, I keep my love from view.
While silence binds my tongue, I stay,
Into your eyes I look, I pray,
While courage fails to light my way,
Despair I gather, day by day.
With me, you're not too cold, nor distant ever,
Yet so composed, so flawless in your guise,
That my once-fearless soul begins to quiver,
And all the needed words before you die.
Each day with you, I wait for new embraces,
I catch the moment when I drown in your gazes,
To value all their depth and golden graces—
And finally, one day, I'll break the traces,
And cry "My love for you blazes!"
While silence binds my tongue, I stay,
Into your eyes I look, I pray,
While courage fails to light my way,
Despair I gather, day by day.
I hold my peace,
I gaze, I cease,
I love.
While silence binds my tongue, I stay,
Into your eyes I look, I pray,
While courage fails to light my way,
Despair I gather, day by day.
I hold my peace,
I gaze, I cease,
I love.
