My world's been light blue
Since the day you were here
Forever in my arms, lying together in the grass
Everything's forgotten, make room for you and me
I've never known that what I've been searching for is you
When you sleep and I can't be with you for a short while
So perfect, such a lot of happiness, and yet so small
When you sleep, when our love might even get some rest,
You can't see it's you that makes me smile all the time
And I watch upon you with all my heart when you sleep.
You keep looking at me, not losing sight of me,
Time and again so insecurely, but your eyes stay dry
Your heartbeat sounds like music to my ears,
A mother blackbird is singing because you were born.
When you sleep and I can't be with you for a short while
So perfect, such a lot of happiness, and yet so small
When you sleep, when our love might even get some rest,
You can't see it's you that makes me smile all the time
And I watch upon you with all my heart
I could scream for joy now
So take these smiles I'd love so much to give you
And I love you with all my heart.
