Overseas Telegram

Only you, only me
In the world can understand what we have
Over days, over months, over years
I’ve felt your heart close to mine
Every thought link our souls
After only seven days together
And so many, many hours on the phone
Overseas telegrams, through our minds
Are flying like butterflies

Just a glance, just a smile
Just a word, and I knew that it was you
You were so natural, familiar
Like a place I’d seen before
Why did we let our lives
Kill the faith we had in Paradise
Will our dreams of joy someday become true?
Cross the bridge, trust in me, in my love
And I’ll get a star for you

Run for your love forget the rules
Do what your heart is telling you
Stop delaying your happiness
You deserve it just like me

Here the Sun is rising
And I'll live another day without you
If I sing you a song then I hope
That you'll hear it in your dreams
All my days are your nights
But I'd love to wake up besides you
Seize the day with my hand in your hand
Overseas telegrams, through our minds
Are flying like butterflies
For you and I
