What Love Is

What Love Is


Come a little closer and whisper sweet nothings in my ear,
Kiss my lips so tenderly, that I can feel your fears.
Open up your heart to me and show me you want me near,
Tell me you won’t let me go and I’ll always be here.


Angel tears fall to the ground, when we are torn apart,
I wish to always have you here; I wish to be in your heart.
I wish my wishes would come true; we would never part.
You make my wishes all come true, you are my other half.


Hold my hand and don’t let go, I will always need you,
Put your arms around my waist, so one can become two.
Lay with me and say goodnight, with your head on my pillow,
Lay with me and kiss me goodnight, then I am yours it is true.


You are no longer a dream inside my head;
You’ve brought my heart back from the dead.
I kiss you goodbye with a hidden dread;
Will she really come back again?


Then you call me on the phone,
You ask me “Are you alone?”
I tell you “yes I’m all alone at home.”
Then I open the door and put down the phone.


We share a hug; I caress your cheek,
You hold me close, like you really need me.
We kiss a kiss, pure ecstasy through our lips,
Those three words, we at last manage to speak.


We share a smile, we share our love,
We let each other truly open up.
We become free, by locking ourselves away,
In a locket you keep in a jewelry box,
Whenever I am not next to your heart.
