Before

did life mean anything before your day,

was I contented in my way?

Sweet feelings are stealing over me

I'm feeling this is how I want to be

Before...

was there no laughter here in sight?

my heart who chose your smile to play the part of sunshine

inside the world that is mine

now you're the only thing in my mind

You, you seem to know me very well

I have no reason to pretend

with you there is no emptiness of time

no mountains to climb

to prove what I am

Before...

there was this miracle of life in me

I can't explain that mystery without you

It's half a lifetime ago

now you are the only life that I know

You, you seem to know me very well

I have no reason to pretend

with you there is no emptiness of time

no mountains to climb

to prove what I am

Before there was this miracle of life in me

I can't explain that mystery without you

It's half a lifetime ago

now you are the only life that I know

now you are the only life that I know
