[Verse]
In the sands of Turkmenistan
I'm all alone
Built my fortress from the winds and the unknown
Always hated love
Its lies and twisted schemes
But a stranger from Belarus disrupted my dreams
[Verse 2]
Her eyes spoke a language my heart couldn't ignore
A spark in the desert opened a long-locked door
She moved like a whisper
Like a soft blue breeze
And I was a hermit brought down to my knees
[Chorus]
Oh love it turned me
Flipped my world to light
From Turkmenistan's shadows
To a Latvian night
She taught me to feel
What I never could know
Now in love's embrace
I forever will grow
[Verse 3]
We wandered through cities with our souls untethered
From Minsk to Riga
Love's storm came together
Latvia's church bells rang
Pulled me out of my skin
The hermit I was
I became love's kin
[Bridge]
How strange it is
To feel and be seen
To know the warmth of hands where cold has been
Oh Belarus beauty
You cracked my hard shell
Turned my lonely desert into a living well
[Chorus]
Oh love it turned me
Flipped my world to light
From Turkmenistan's shadows
To a Latvian night
She taught me to feel
What I never could know
Now in love's embrace
I forever will grow
