I shrank from all that was warm
As I gathered both strength and thought.
My soul was a raging storm,
With pain in my heart; I fought

I am smoke above the water,
Watching the caress of the tides.
For only twice have I faltered,
Thought never again to rise.

I felt you one starry night,
On a beach of water and sand.
My thoughts were of swift flight,
But my heart wanted to stand.

As you stood, I saw myself.
When you smiled, it caught my soul.
Your caring thoughts were gold and wealth,
and the prides of myself lost control.

I am smoke above the water,
Watching the caress of the tides.
For only twice have I faltered,
Thought never again to rise.

As I looked, the waters turned blue.
All the dark was leaving.
Could it be because of you,
That started again my dreaming?

On that night you became my friend.
And from that morning my lover too.
A passion in life that will never end.
A bond in dreams between we two.
