the story of the life inside of me

[Verse Translation]

So long ago,long ago the music that was so melodious
and the sun that rose on my heart
the voice of the birds awakening us from sleep of peace
early and prepared for the journey

A ripening field,the barley and rye growing
the loch of swans in stillness
that was the image that stayed with us that summer
and every other summer that's since gone

But now i'm climbing the mountain of years
with each blemish and schism coming of the world
but the day of renewal will come with certainty
just like the day when i first felt your love
