Lyrics:
You ask me how deeply I love you, how much I love you, my love is true and my love is true.
The moon represents my heart. You ask me how deeply I love you and how much I love you.
My feelings are unwavering, my love remains unchanged, and the moon represents my heart.
A gentle kiss has touched my heart.
A deep love makes me miss you till now.
You ask me how deeply I love you, how much I love you.
Think about it and take a look. The moon represents my heart.
A gentle kiss has touched my heart.
A deep love makes me miss you till now.
You ask me how deeply I love you, how much I love you.
Think about it and take a look. The moon represents my heart.
Think about it and take a look. The moon represents my heart.
