I will come for you at night time,

You will make me laugh and make me cry,

And we will never forget it,

You will make me call your name, and I'll shout it to the blue summer, sky.

So shed your skin and lets get started,

So if you disappear out of view,

You know, I will never say good-bye,

And though I try to forget it,
E A B B
You will make me call your name, and I'll shout it to the blue summer, sky.
