Amoureuse (English)
Veronique Sanson · Other Songs - Veronique Sanson
Strands of light upon a bedroom floor
Change the night through an open door.
I'm awake but this is not my home, for the first time I'm not alone.
Reaching out, I touch another skin
Breathing out as he is breathing in.
Deep inside, I feel my soul aflame, can my life ever be the same ?
I should have told him, I'd do anything if I could hold him
For just another day, for just another day.
His love is something I will not forget.
When I am far away, when I am far away
I feel the rainfall of another planet, another planet.
Close together in the afterglow, I remember how his loving flow
Turned the key into another world, made a woman of a simple girl.
Daylight comes as we both know it must
Soon my fantasy will turn to dust.
But I would give him anything he asked if my first love could be my last.
I should have told him, I'd do anything if I could hold him
For just another day, for just another day.
His love is something I will not regret.
When I am far away, when I am far away
I feel the rainfall of another planet, another planet.
