Only

I hear the drumbeats of my heart,
only my heart.
The clouds and sun disappear,
no wind, no air
but still I can breathe.
As the trees, flowers and birds
starts to fade like a watercolor painting
splashed with water.

Only you, although I don't know you
keeps me going.
I'm waiting for you
to fill up my world
with clouds, sun, rain,
trees and flowers
that we'll create.

Only you, although I don't know you
will I wait.
On riverbanks till they too
will dry up.
On streams till they too
will give up.

Only you, although I don't know you
Will I wait.
