A world of thieves.


If someone stole the sun,

I would check your passion— 

It burns just as strong.

 

If someone stole the stars,

I would check your eyes— 

They shine just as bright

 

If someone stole the heavens,

I would check your soul—

For there is nothing in the world more beautiful.

 

If someone stole my love,

I would find it— 

In your passion,

In your eyes,

In your soul,

 

If someone stole my love, my love— 

I would find it,

In you.
