A fortune in comforts
when I feel your touch upon my arm
Your eyes are like the ocean
when you choose they bring in the peace, they bring in the calm

It could have been the summer
the tone of your voice
although I am not sure
when the time came to leave
i had one wish
to love you forever more

Oh, Lejandami, I want to love you
You make me cry

If I held the star while falling
tell me, lover, would I burn right through your hand
for all the love I've given you
one thing is true
I still don't understand
the past just like a mirror / in smoky haze
things as they were before
Count-less (without the Count) lovers and the tears I've cried
I tell you now
there shall be no more

Oh Lejandami  

in this eternal circle
if memories return will it bring you back to me
the wheel turns quickly
never fast enough to set the soul and spirit free

Oh, Lejandami
