First Day
Do you remember our first day together?
You wanted a lover, I needed a friend-
now we are lovers and still we are friends,
my winter has come to an end.
I'd been through summer, it's hot and dry there,
autumn, my hopes like leaves slowly turned-
winter was cold, there was no one to hold;
with your love, warm thoughts of spring had returned.
Walks on a starry night, waves mirror moonlight,
eyes meeting, cheeks touching, lips rendezvous-
smiles slowly growing, hearts drumming wild;
is this imagination, can it be true?
Picture the moon on the last night of winter,
watching as dawn paints its flowery art-
I am the moon and our love is a rose,
meeting you was the first day of spring in my heart.
