Just One

If I say I'm all right, don't believe me -
You can see all the grief in my eyes
As I come every time when you need me,
Every time in a different guise.

My heart frets every time as I see you,
And the blood turns so cold in my veins.
No, love, I won't try to deceive you -
Just for you I wake up every day,

Just to you leads the way I have chosen,
Just for you I'll be strong till the end,
Just for you beats this heart, once so frozen,
Heart of scars... now it's just in your hands.

You're my savior and my salvation,
You're my sweetest escape and my shield,
Of my dreams you're the one incarnation,
And to just one temptation I yield.
