"Gravity Of Love" Enigma
YouTube Video
"O Fortuna velut Luna" ["O Fortune like the Moon"]
Turn around and smell what you don't see
Close your eyes ... it is so clear
Here's the mirror, behind there is a screen
On both ways you can get in.
Don't think twice before you listen to your heart,
Follow the trace for a new start.
What you need and everything you'll feel
Is just a question of the deal.
In the eye of storm you'll see a lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love.
"O Fortuna velut Luna"
The path of excess leads to the tower of Wisdom
The path of excess leads to the tower of Wisdom
Try to think about it...
That's the chance to live your life and discover
What it is, what's the gravity of love
"O Fortuna velut Luna"
Look around just people, can you hear their voice
Find the one who'll guide you to the limits of your choice.
But if you're in the eye of storm
Just think of the lonely dove
The experience of survival is the key
To the gravity of love.
