You are the flame in my heart
You light my way in the dark
You are the ultimate star

You lift me from up above
Your unconditional love
Takes me to paradise

I belong to you
And you
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
You make me feel so sweet

You make me feel so divine
Your soul and mind are entwined
Before you I was blind

But since I've opened my eyes
And with you there's no disguise
So I could open up my mind

I always loved you from the start
But I could not figure out
That I had to do it everyday

So I put away the fight
Now I'm gonna live my life
Giving you the most in every way

I belong to you
And you (and you)
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
You make me feel so sweet

Oh I belong to you
(I belong to you)
And you (you)
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
You make me feel so sweet

Oh I belong to you
(I belong to you)
And you (you)
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
(You make my life complete)
You make me feel so sweet

Oh I belong to you
(I belong to you)
And you (you)
You belong to me too

You make my life complete
(You make my life complete)
You make me feel so sweet
