Lyrics

How can a man who sees and feels (What is an experience if it′s not shared?)
Be other than sad? (Did it even happen?)
How can a man who sees and feels (A sad feeling can be seen)
Be other than sad? (Did it even happen?)

Our love will grow vaster than empires and more
Our love will grow vaster than empires and more
Our love will grow vaster than empires and more
Our love will grow vaster than empires and more slow

(Did it even happеn?)
(What is an experience if it's not shared?)
(Did it even happеn?)
(Did it even happеn?)
(Did it even happеn?)
