lyrics

Sending my love
I don’t know if it is enough
But it’s all I have to give to you

But in time I will reach you I will sail on the sea
Your heart is a beacon that will guide me to thee
And I will travel every corridor available to me
I will get to you!

Don’t break my heart
I knew right from the very start
That it was a risk I had to take

Verse 3
Kiss on my lips
Each moment as I reminisce
I cherish each memory of you

But in time I will reach you I will sail on the sea
There’s no border that can come between what was made for you and me
And there’s no mountain that has altitude, no ocean that’s too deep
I will get to you!

In time I will reach you I will sail on the sea
There’s no function that can limit what was made for you and me
And this is not imagination, this is not hyperbole
I will get to you

Ohhhhhh, Ohhhhhhh

Sending my love
I hope it is enough
You have my heart
although we are apart

[instrumental break]

I will reach you
I will reach you
I will reach you
