Främling, vad döljer du för mig i dina mörka ögon
En svag nyans av ljus nånstans men ändå
En främling, så känner jag för dig
Jag ber dig låt mig få veta
Vem vill du vara kan du förklara det för mig?
Som Mona Lisa har sitt leende
Så gömmer också du en hemlighet
Stjärnor jag ser dom vill gärna ta ner nå'n
till dig
Där bortom himlen finns en evighet
Om du vill upptäcka den här med mig
Ta första stegen och visa mig vägen i kväll
En känsla och jag litar på den
Se'n blir vår kärlek aldrig främmande igen
Natten finns till för dig och mig
Glöm det som är omkring oss
Låt mig få komma låt mig få vara nära dig
Som Mona Lisa har sitt leende
Så gömmer också du en hemlighet
Stjärnor jag ser dom vill gärna ta ner nå'n
till dig.
