[Intro - soft piano solo] [Verse 1 - Male] I remember that wondrous moment when you appeared before my eyes like a vision gone in a moment like an angel of the purest beauty In the torment of a hopeless sorrow in the noise of a vain and restless living for a long time your gentle voice was in my ear and in my dreams I saw your dear and lovely face [Verse 2 - Male] The slow years went by, one after another and a storm of violent change scattered the dreams that I used to keep so I forgot the softness of your voice and your face that was an angel's face In that far poor country, in that dark and prisoned life my days went by in silence, one by one no one to love at all, no breath of poetry without a tear, without a life and without any love [Pre-Chorus - Female] In that far poor country in that dark and prisoned place no one to love at all, no breath of poetry without a tear, without a life and without any love [Chorus - Male lead, Female harmony] And now my soul has begun to wake again and here before me once again, you stand like a vision gone in a moment like an angel of the purest beauty My heart is beating in a wild delight and everything inside it wakes again someone to love again, the breath of poetry a life again, and tears again and love again at last [Instrumental - piano interlude] [Verse 3 - Male] I remember that wondrous moment when you appeared before my eyes like dawn walking out of that dark far country like eyes lit up inside a prisoned life [Bridge - whisper duet] (Male) In the torment of a hopeless sorrow (Female) in the noise of a vain and restless living (Male) for a long time your gentle voice was in my ear (Female) in my dreams I saw your dear and lovely face (Together) and now my soul has begun to wake again and here before me once again, you stand [Final Chorus] My heart is beating in a wild delight and everything inside it wakes again someone to love again, the breath of poetry a life again, and tears again and love again at last [Outro - piano solo, fading] I remember that wondrous moment when you appeared before my eyes
