Love Is Hope

gave my all,

Poured my love into you,

Took you deep inside my soul,

Now it hurts so much to let go.

Don’t think there’s no way back,

Isn’t love repairable?

Every night I prayed for us,

But were my prayers too silent to be heard?

We made mistakes, but none unforgivable,

Neither you nor I.

So if I don’t walk out of your life,

But hide in a quiet corner—

As your friend or as your lover,

Just to see your face, to speak of rain or water.

**(Refrain)**

If I don’t leave your world,

Can I just stay in the shadow of your heart?

Even if I’m only someone you pass by,

Let me stay, let me breathe where your love still lingers.

Please, don’t be angry—

My heart dies slowly without you,

Since I met you, I’ve learned to love, to live.

Before you, I never really existed.

With you, I became whole again.

Your love is the breath that woke me,

Please keep me alive with your touch.

**(Verse 2)**

I lock my heart in a cage,

For it beats only for you—forever, endlessly.

Catch me, I’m falling deeper into the dark,

Without your love, I lose my way.

Hold me, love me, wrap me in your arms;

Now I know—the power of love is the soul’s only truth.

And when the night breaks my heart with longing,

I’ll come to you in dreams and whisper:

I miss you... I love you.

**(Bridge)**

I’ve never loved or missed someone this much,

I need you—my darling, my life.

Fate brought us together so mercifully,

And now I know I can’t live without you.

Love is hope; love brings me back to life.

To love is to live—and only you keep me alive.

You are my light, my breath,

The blood that keeps my heart beating.

**(Outro)**

My heart blooms for you like a Christmas star,

Strange words, yet true from my soul.

Heal me—with your love, your smile, your voice.

You’re my medicine,

And only you can make me whole again.
