LYRICS
You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
Mmm...
Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
RUSSIAN VERSE
Ты моя радость (Ty moya radost)
Как ночь в лесу (Kak noch v lesu)
Как горы весной (Kak gory vesnoy)
Как трава под дождем (Kak trava pod dozhdem)
Как пустынные грозы (Kak pustynnyye grozy)
Как сонный океан (Kak sonnyy okean)
Ты моя радость (Ty moya radost)
Вернись ко мне (Vernis ko mne)
SPANISH VERSE
Como una noche en el bosque
Como las montañas en primavera
Como un paseo bajo la lluvia
Como una tormenta en el desierto
Como un soñoliento mar azul
Tú llenas mis sentidos
Ven y lléname otra vez
ITALIAN VERSE
Come la notte nella foresta
Come le montagne in primavera
Come una passeggiata nella pioggia
Come la tempesta nel deserto
Come un calmo oceano blu
Tu mi riempi di emozione
Vieni fallo ancora
GERMAN VERSE
Du bringst mir das Leben
Wie die Nacht in den Bäumen
Wie die Berge im Frühling
Wie ein Gang in dem Regen
Wie ein Sturm in der Wüste
Wie ein stillblauer Ozean
Du bringst mir die Liebe
Bring sie noch einmal
