Lyrics

I never knew life could be so
It’s a gem that I tremble to touch
You are a view thrilling me so
Full of glitter and glamour and such
One wish I ask of you
Just let me love you

Refrain
My love lives for your love
For your smile, for you sigh, my beloved
My lips long for your lips
And the warm nearness of my beloved
Each desire you desire
I’ll take as my command
Make roses grow in the snow
If so you should demand
I’ll show you a rainbow
Anytime, any place, my beloved
And I’ll make a necklace of
The brightest stars above
And give it, my beloved, to you
