Once I find you, once I reach you
Your face, how it haunts me
Your arms, will they want me? Will you know me?
What surprises will you show me?

I have young arms, I have all the dreams
Warm as sunlight, soft as moon beams
And they've told me
Come tomorrow, you will hold me

Is there something in the misty night
That keeps you from my lips?
How long will we be lonely people
Moving like two passing ships?

From the moment of your birth
You were my destiny on earth
And I know well what love is worth
Sure as leaves that fall and the star shine
You will soon be always, always, always all mine

Once I find you, once I reach you
Your face, how it haunts me
