Lyrics

Step into the misty mountains

With your hair like ambered honey

To feeling warm and breezes

Let me sweetly


Let me hear your sweet, sweet laughter

And your loving conversation

And your innocent solution


Give me love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Be my lifelong passion

Give me love, love, love

Make my lifelong passion

Sail away

Sail away

Sail away

Sail away


You feel the warm and breezes

You give me hands of warmth

Give me one f your hands

Let me hear your sweet, sweet laughter

Give me one of your hands

Let me kiss your lips of silver

Let me kiss your lips of silver


Give me love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Be my lifelong passion

Give me love, love, love

Make my lifelong passion

Give me love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love

Be my lifelong passion

Give me love, love, love

Make my lifelong passion

Sail away

Sail away

Sail away

Sail away


Give me love, love, love

Make my lifelong passion


Loving conversation

Loving conversation

Innocent solution

Make my lifelong passion
