Like one drop in the water,
Could not feel smaller
When I'm standing next to you
Now most wouldn't bother
To take this path further,
But you're not like the rest, are you?
Wait, the blossoms in the air
Are falling on your hair,
The colors pale and true.
Wait, there's love here if we dare
To lay our bodies bare,
Forget the words we've used.
But let these words go through
That whatever road you choose
There's a place for you
I'll make space for you
I will wait for you
The first kiss, the first embrace
The first smile that found your hair
When I walked next to you
It's worse knowing there's a place
In my mind I can't erase
When I walked next to you
Wait, the blossoms in the air
Are falling on your hair,
The colors pale and true.
Wait, there's love here if we dare
To lay our bodies bare,
Forget the words we've used.
But let these words go through
That whatever road you choose
There's a place for you
I'll make space for you
I will wait for you
