Verse 1:
A moment is a distance of life
It could be a million waves
It could be half a sigh
It doesn't matter when you and I
Are ever between waking dreams
Ever longing for slumber
Chorus:
If the gaze between lovers' eyes
Are truly meters of eternity
Then I would take you
To each and every universe
Till I am weary of your presence
To prepare me for your absence
Endless separation is for us
To live purely in a single moment
With only room for bliss
Way too brief for doubts
I just want to love you thus
Giving you all of my pilgrim soul
Verse 2:
A lifetime is such a long phrase
Only very few could really speak it
Sometimes you only need a blink
Silent but telling everything
Till you accept the meaning of life
Without knowing what it is or why
Chorus:
If the gaze between lovers' eyes
Are truly meters of eternity
Then I would take you
To each and every universe
Till I am weary of your presence
To prepare me for your absence
Endless separation is for us
To live purely in a single moment
With only room for bliss
Way too brief for doubts
I just want to love you thus
Giving you all of my pilgrim soul
CODA:
From an eternity of distance
To a moment everlasting
Brief encounters like specks of stars
Dreams never to be awaken
