ILDEFONSO CORREAS APELANZ

LOVE I DO

Falling in love
I know
Read slowly from here on
It is easy to be lost
As it is with you and me
Falling into who we are now
Falling into who we will be
As I convey these thoughts
Surrendered by the wind
Dependency of love
Dare we to be intense
The silence of this peace
Falling in love
It is too easy to believe
The senses light us up
As fire that begins
Like a mountain
Brave and thin
The unbreakable
We speak
The unspeakable
We think
The unthinkable
We break
Falling in love
As I quit and run
As I face no face
As I hear no voice
As I see you friend
Where the shadows of my heart
Leads my tears to forgive
Alone what is done to please
But the future may present
What we know is unknown
And yet I choose once more
I pick my choice of love
I lift my soul to you
I raise my hope and wait
I brighten you in every dream
As we fall both in this romance
Groovy tender tremble world
The world of words
So short to me
Unable to use them
Attempt to express this ample need
To simply tell you friend
What I think we feel
The unreliable myth
When we cross the sky to meet
Falling for love within and out
Beneath the truth
I hide from It
As I fall in love and lay
As I shake and grieve
As I shiver and mourn
My whole groovy body cries
About this happiness there is
The meaning of that wind
May be bless for all to heal
I shall say it again
Because of you
You read this
Please come downtown around
I beg your mouth near me
Softly touch seems to repeat
On a sunny autumn day
What I can not hold  today
Falling in love, with you
Falling in love, I do
