what is love ?
I'm getting closer to her
and the closer I get
the more I lose my fear of loneliness
a step outside in the rain,
they just close the cinemas
I'm lightyears away from you as I drive in my car
and your love shines like a neon sign,
it ain't so far
but the distance is unbelievable
what is love: unbelievable
what is freedom ?
I guess that I'm free again
I'm so fucking free to decide
whether I'm wrong or right, to win or lose
I love you, I feel like a little boy
too little to take all your burning love
and toyland is melting away in the heat
