    Translation in English
    The heart a thousand pieces
    and I'm on the road of endurance
    without hope anymore
    and then you came and told me me.
    
    Wherever you go, you know
    I will follow you too
    
    I will love you for a lifetime
    you are not alone my child
    I am here
    I will love you for a lifetime
    you are not alone my child
    you should know that
    that I am here
    
    Alone and with myself now
    and as I was counting deep wounds
    your grace gave me wings
    because I heard you tell me
    
    Wherever you go, you know
    I will follow you too
    
    I will love you forever
    you are not alone my child
    I am here
    I will love you forever
    you are not alone my child
    you should know that
    that I am here
    
    I will be during the black times by your side 
    With you
    and in the dark time I am here
    with you 
    
    I am with you 
    Both together 
    I am with you 
    Both together
    Both together
