Lyrics
I look in your eyes and see lightning
The tremble of hearts is still frightening
I listen to my inner voices
They're singing a song about you
The stories we were told as children
When we touch they are coming true
You hold me and time is my witness
I'm helplessly drowning in sweetness
My heart is a snowball on fire
Your laughter is feeding the flame
I will long for your love forever
Like a forest longs for the rain
Your smile
It is the key to my fortress
It has the power of magic
It is the door to my heart
I'm watching the sun slowly fading
I'm watching the stars are invading the sky
And the night comes to rescue
All the people in love
No mercy for such tender feelings
In the eyes of the burning sun
Your smile
It is the key to my fortress
It has the power of magic
It is the door to my heart
You hold me and time is my witness
I'm helplessly drowning in sweetness
My heart is a snowball on fire
Your laughter is feeding the flame
I will long for your love forever
Like a forest longs for the rain
Your smile
It is the key to my fortress
It has the power of magic
It is the door to my heart
Your smile
It is the key to my fortress
It has the power of magic
It is the door to my heart
