Lyrics English Verison

[Verse 1]
Like a little green duck I dove into the lakes
You left me the tales and the whispered and fates
If I take my heart away to lands unknown and free
Small melodic slide don't forget me darling as I won't forget thee

[Verse 2]
You left me to the stories floating through the town
Even if I roam afar I won't let my love down
If my head drifts away to foreign streets I go
Short melodic embellishment don't forget me darling as I won't forget you so

[Chorus]
Hold note for tension
My beloved my sun my moon
The heart that loves will feel the tune
Come let me touch your hand I pray
Don't forget me and I won't forget you
Don't forget me and I won't forget you
Hold note for tension

[Verse 3]
I dive into the lakes a little green duck
You left me in the tales and every whispered luck
Even if I wander far I carry you in me
Don't forget me darling as I won't forget thee

[Chorus]
My beloved my sun my moon
The heart that loves will feel the tune
Come let me touch your hand I pray
Don't forget me and I won't forget you

[Chorus]
My beloved my sun my moon
The heart that loves will feel the tune
Come let me touch your hand I pray
Don't forget me and I won't forget you
Don't forget me and I won't forget you
Hold note for tension

[Outro]
