In my dream, I know you'll go

When the moon smiles and my eyes too.

In my dream, why? I don't know.

The door opens, my mind draws

What I see, what I do.

In my dream, I know you'll go.

On your face I can see the shadow

I want to know as much as you.

In my dream, why? I don't know.

Your eyes and your smile say hello

When I touch your hand, you do too.

In my dream, I know you'll go.

You’re moving away step by step now.

The door closes, all becomes true.

In my dream, why? I don't know.

Dawn is here till tomorrow.

It's already the end for you.

In my dream, I know you'll go.

In my dream, why? I don't know.
