English

Even if I can only live for one day

Do you know how much I miss you and how much my heart aches

I miss you so much, through the ravages of the passage of time

My tired footsteps bring me to your side, unknowingly

Even though I know there’s nothing I can do for you.

“I love you” – words I keep shouting in my heart

“I love you” – words I can only whisper behind your back

“I love you” – words that I can’t speak for fear they will disappear

I love you so much it scares me

Like the galaxy of stars in the night

Within my sight but out of my reach and touch

Watching over you is my duty

Waiting every day till it becomes an obsession

Expectations of you rising above my height

“I love you” – words I keep shouting in my heart

“I love you” – words I can only whisper behind your back

“I love you” – words that I can’t speak for fear they will disappear

I love you so much it scares me

I have to confess my love for you today

Even if I can only live for one day

Now I’m going to confess, I’m going to say “I love you”.
