1. In your eyes I cast my hopes
And said, now I forgive my time

2. I spent my life searching for you, a dream
I saw you years ago in my being

3. I left my heart with you without fear
And I fear it would die if it came to me

4. So if they ask you one day about my heart
And how it lives, bewildered by hopes?

5. Say that your love was a song
Like a dream that shone in the night of time

6. I loved you one day in my confusion
And in your eyes I forgive my time
