When I saw you standing there, darling it caught me by surprise
Your sacred smile and the glitter in your eyes
In a room full of strangers, there was only you and I
I just couldn’t look away
You were wounded, but I felt your heart was pure
My head was clouded, but I knew that I was sure
In a crowd of faceless phantoms, I thought I knew who you were
I just could not walk away
afraid, my heart is beating
I am begging and I am pleading - that I don’t let myself down again
afraid that my ghost is fading
I am begging and I am pleading – that you see who I really am
Doubt is a drug running in my veins
levitate across the room and I ask you your name
Everything I thought I knew, would never be the same
We held hands and walked away
Under the spell, we lost track of time
In a moment we had left behind the devils in disguise
We both felt that we’ve met before tonight
And it would always be this way
afraid, my heart is beating
I am begging, I am pleading - that I don’t let myself down again
Afraid, that my heart is bleeding
I am begging, I am pleading – that I can be who I really am
You are the one, we can be whole
Forever we live on, together not alone
Fear of the past disappears into the wind
With you, I leave behind the life I used to live
