Between moss covered branches and shrubbed floors,
Which are imbedded with our priceless memories
We dance to the music of the stream

Looking into your eyes in the glittered rain,
your fingers tangle themselves in my hair,
We’re spinning around; Earth is our disco ball

After countless sips of the pure waterfall
We stumble to the dewy ground…
Intoxicated by love

Hypnotised by one another
Our hearts race in sync
Lips touching, we cannot resist
