My heart, when caught within your gaze,
Falls helplessly beneath your spell;
I am a wanderer lost in love,
A captive where your shadows dwell.

I carry your name through every street,
Your memory follows where I go;
And though I try to flee from you,
My heart refuses to let you go.

At night, I sit beside the window,
Waiting for footsteps in the rain,
Hoping that somehow you will return
And bring the sunlight back again.

You left, yet every room still whispers
The sound of a love that once was near;
And every silent corner of this house
Still holds the ghost of you, my dear.

I saw your face in passing clouds,
I heard your voice within the wind;
In every road my lonely feet have walked,
Some trace of you I always find.

What magic lives inside your eyes,
That steals my soul each time we meet?
One single glance from you is enough
To make my restless heart complete.

If loving you is called a sin,
Then let me bear that sin with pride;
For I would rather burn in love
Than live with nothing deep inside.

You are the moon above my darkness,
I am the night that waits below;
You are the dawn that breaks my sorrow,
The only light I’ve ever known.

I never asked the world for riches,
Nor crowns, nor fame, nor endless gold;
Give me one smile upon your lips,
And I will have more than I can hold.

If destiny should keep us distant,
And I must love you from afar,
Then distance cannot change my heart—
For you will still be where you are.

And if one day they ask me softly,
“Who was the love that made you whole?”
I’ll say, “The one whose eyes once found me
And quietly captured all my soul.”

Perhaps I was born to wander,
Perhaps I was meant to lose my way;
But if every road still leads to you,
I’ll walk those roads until my final day.

And when my final breath is fading,
When all the world has disappeared,
Your name will still remain upon my lips,
The sweetest name my heart has ever held dear.

For I was yours before I knew it,
And I’ll be yours beyond the years;
Through every distance, every silence,
Through every night, through all my tears.

So let the world forget our story,
Let time erase what it once knew;
My heart will keep one truth forever:

I was lost in love—
And I was lost in you.
