Lyrics:
[Verse 1] First you look so strong, then you fade away The sun will blind my eyes, I'll love you anyway Thirsty for your smile, I watch you for a while You are a vapour trail in a deep blue sky [Refrain] La la la la, la La la la la, la La la la la, la La la la la [Verse 2] Tremble with a sigh, glitter in your eye You seem to come and go, I never seem to know And all my time is yours as much as mine We never have enough time to show our love [Refrain] La la la la, la La la la la, la La la la la, la La la la love [Instrumental outro]
