I walk in the night, searching the light of my love
I'm lost in the dark
Where is the spark of my love?
The heavens opened and closed
As well, I might have supposed
And I am lost in this abandoned
So far removed from all that I had planned on
My heart is sad and lonely
For you, I sigh
For you, dear, only
Why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you, body and soul
I was a mere sensation
My house of love had no foundation
I tell you I mean it
I'm all for you, body and soul
I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you would turn away romance
Are you pretending? It looks likе the ending
Unless I can havе one more chance to prove, dear
My world revolves about you
What earthly good am I without you?
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul
What lies before me? A future that's stormy
A winter that's grey and cold
Unless there's magic, the end will be tragic
And echo a tale that's been told so often
My life, a hell, you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul
