Before This World

You’ve asked me if I love you
I gave no answer then
And you ask again
And I don’t know still what to say…

How to tell that I would give all my life and youth
All the pride and dreams
To be only with you
Only to be with you
Forever yours

We walked then silently ahead
Hand and hand
And my heart prayed
The road would never end

How to tell you you’re my life
My breath and heart
Everything I need and want
My dream and soul
You are my everything

Far shore I seek so bad
My eternal sea without an end
My purity and sin
My curse and deepest wish
I fall onto my knees and pray to see you in a dream
One more time to know
Your soul is still entwined with mine
Beyond the world
Beyond the time

I’m still yours
Beyond all words

Believe me, love
You are the one
Don’t ask, just take my hand and hold
We were entwined
Before this world
