    Stylish things I cannot say, and yet
    I will stay softly by your side
    With vivid letters in my diary
    I will write of you and the future
    
    If even after seeking out your brilliance
    And having finished reading through
    The tale of love, when I am lonely
    Dressing you in the color of dreams
    I close my eyes.... And with my love, 
    I offer to you my kiss
    I do love you, for all of my life
    Pretty baby, I will hold you close in my arms
    
    Making pretenses I cannot do, and yet
    I will give to you a passioned glance
    Gathering stardust on a lonely night
    I will shine bright light upon you
    
    If even after searching for this fluttering
    And making wishes to the sky
    For fortunes told, when my heart is in pain
    
    *Letting loose the wings of an angel
     With tears falling, overflowing, 
     I offer to you my kiss
    
     I do love you, for all of my life
     Pretty baby, I will hold you close in my arms
