With Each Breath (Cavatina)

With each breath, each heartbeat closer you are,
your lips, your smell,
the gaze of your eyes drives me quite crazy,
I know you well
but still you remain a big mystery
with shell on shell
covering new beauty, some depths profound,
while to you I become much deeper bound.
