| Something happened in the moment
|
| Just before you whispered yes
|
| All my hopes and dreams were shaking
|
| At the edge of emptiness
|
| I was certain you’d be tender
|
| As you turned my love away
|
| But then you smiled
|
| Then you smiled
|
| I could feel my heart beat louder
|
| And my fingers turned to ice
|
| I had dared to say, «I love you»
|
| Now I’d have to pay the price
|
| Who was I; |
| what could I offer
|
| Was I mad to even try
|
| But then you smiled
|
| Then you smiled
|
| Then, if such a thing is possible
|
| Your beauty seemed to grow
|
| And I don’t remember breathing
|
| For a hundred years of so
|
| And though you had not spoken
|
| Still, you had not turned to go
|
| And then you smiled
|
| Then you smiled
|
| I was certain to survive it
|
| I was sure I’d love you still
|
| Even though I had not won you
|
| I’d had time to speak my fill
|
| Then you took my hand and held it
|
| And you whispered, «Yes, I will»
|
| And then you smiled
|
| Then you smiled
|
| Then, if such a thing is possible
|
| Your beauty seemed to grow
|
| And I don’t remember breathing
|
| For a hundred years of so
|
| And though you had not spoken
|
| Still, you did not turn to go
|
| And then you smiled
|
