Only now

Only now do I realize that I miss you Only now do I hear your strong voice Only now do I desire you again Again.. and again Only now I smell your perfume Only now I feel you closer A caress on my face And you whisper my name Only now I feel safe More deeply than before Only now I see your light In the silence of a half-open door You've always been on my mind But I never knew why Only now.. only now.. I feel your breath Only now I feel you here Only now I'm truly present There's nothing else around us Only your breath and the sky in this room The white walls become green trees And I get lost in you and I get lost in you Only now I feel safe More deeply than before Only now I see your light In the silence of a half-open door You've always been on my mind But I never understood why Only now.. only now.. I feel your breathing But if I close my eyes I'm afraid that everything could vanish Like a dream that I try to hold on to That slips away with the morning light So I stay awake at night But maybe this is also a dream Only now I feel safe More deeply than before Only now I see your light In the silence of a half-open door You've always been on my mind But I never understood why Only now.. only now.. I feel your breathing Only now I miss you again And again.. and again Only now I know.
