Couples don't always have time
I want to meet you
But we are always passing through by other
Even when we can meet
For a very short time somewhere
I can't really tell you
The words I wanted to say

On the phone always the word
I want to say tends to be cut off
It takes all my attention to catch the words
That are almost vanishing the air
I feel happy just hearing
The simple words
That you say
It's a symphony for lovers

Time is passing by
The people running around
I can hear from somewhere
Music that I was almost forgetting
Two of us
Paying all our attention to listen

Words that lovers whisper to each other
Music that somebody is humming
Somewhere in town
The everything mingled together
And something comes alive
It's a symphony for lovers
