I am asking you to please forget
All that has gone wrong
Let it go and try to understand
Where I am coming from
What I need to say you still don’t know
You are the only one to blame
All I know – it is a shame
To let you slip away
And let you go…
A day with you alone was like a dream
You are such good sport
“Life is good!” is what I want to scream
This evening is too short
I am asking you to be with me
Listen to my point of view
Plain to see and nothing new
That all I need is you
And only you
Hold my breath and I will pray
That twenty years from today
I’d keep you near me and say:
“This love is here to stay”…
Never had such happiness in love
I simply never knew
Ten decades like this alone with you
Would never be enough…
Thankful to the fate that treats me well
For your love that’s always new
At will, I am under your spell –
All that I need is you
And only you
I close my eyes and I will pray
That twenty years from today
I hold you near me and say:
“This love is here to stay”…
