All my dreams lead to you
Queen of my thoughts, Yani
All of my dreams lead to you
Queen of my thoughts, Yani
I still feel you in my skin
Then you disappear, Yani

Why did fate make you go?
Will we meet in heaven, meet in heaven?

You never come by, Yani
Then at night you are there
When I wake up on my own, Yani

Why did fate make you go?
Will we meet in heaven, meet in heaven?
