  • [Spoken by Vincent]
    Somewhere I have never traveled
    Gladly beyond any experience
    Your eyes have their silence
    And your most frail gesture of things
    Which enclose me
    But which I cannot touch
    Because they are too near

    [Sung by Angelle]
    The first time I loved forever
    Was when you whispered my name
    And I knew at once you loved me
    For the me of who I am

    The first time I loved forever
    I cast all else aside
    And I bid my heart to follow
    Be there no more need to hide

    And if wishes and dreams
    Are merely for children
    And if love's a tale for fools
    I'll live the dream with you

    [Spoken by Vincent]
    If your words be to close me
    I, my life will shut, very beautifully
    Suddenly, as when the heart of this flower
    Imagines the snow carefully, everywhere descending

    [Sung by Angelle]
    For all my life and forever
    There's a truth I will always know
    When my world divides and shatters
    Your love is where I'll go

    [Spoken by Vincent]
    I do not know what it is about you that closes
    and opens
    Only something in me understands
    the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses
    Nobody, not even the rain has such small hands Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
