Between you and I

Between you and I,
Rivers and mountains lie.

And roads and bridges set us apart.
To you, all my thoughts depart.
In vain I extend my hand to touch
Your milky hands, your silky hair.
But I know I cannot do much,
For this distance that we share.
And so I sit back and sigh.
Between you and I,
Rivers and mountains lie.

Break free the shackles that bind you.
Let love be your force, let it find you.
Come out running into my arms, my love.
To me, this day, your love you prove.
Tonight, let us not shy.
Between you and I,
Rivers and mountains lie.

You know not how so much I crave you.
Come to me and let me, darling, have you.
This world shall go on with its crap and nonsense.
Let's forget it for a while and make love immense.
Just you and I, baby, and no one else.
Switch off the lights, the noise, the bells.
Let me find your eyes and you find mine.
In darkness let our limitless love shine.
Between you and I,
Rivers and mountains lie.
