NOBODY CONTROLS THE HEART

There are things that time cannot explain,
Encounters that life brings our way.
And when destiny makes two paths cross,
No one knows what love may create...

You came into my life without warning,
Without promises, without a word to say.
Slowly, you found your way into my thoughts,
And I never noticed you becoming part of me.

I wasn't searching for another story,
Nor expecting to fall in love again.
But something hidden in your smile
Made my heart awaken once again.

I tried to listen to the voice of reason,
I tried to run away from this emotion.
But feelings never ask for permission
When they find a home inside your heart.

Because nobody controls the heart,
Nobody chooses who they fall in love with.
Destiny may write the paths we follow,
But it's love that makes us want to stay.

You came and filled an empty space,
A place I never knew existed deep in me.
And even without knowing our tomorrow,
My heart somehow chose you naturally.

Sometimes I wonder what life is doing
When it brings two hearts so close together.
It mixes longing with desire
And turns the silence into feelings.

I don't know if time will be our friend,
Or if this dream will ever come true.
I only know there's a place inside my heart
That unknowingly belongs to you.

Life may force us to be distant,
And reason may try to make us see.
But how can anyone erase a feeling
That was born so unexpectedly?

Because nobody controls the heart,
Nobody chooses who they fall in love with.
Destiny may write the paths we follow,
But it's love that makes us want to stay.

You came and filled an empty space,
A place I never knew existed deep in me.
And even without knowing our tomorrow,
My heart somehow chose you naturally.

If someday you should ask me
Why, among so many, I chose you...
I'll look deeply into your eyes,
And perhaps I won't know what to say.

Because love has no explanation,
It knows no rules, no boundaries, no direction.
And when it finds that special someone,
It simply takes possession of the heart.

I don't want to hold your feelings captive,
Or demand what you cannot give.
I only want you to know that deep inside me,
There's someone who can't forget you.

Because nobody controls the heart!
Nobody chooses who they fall in love with!
Destiny may bring two paths together,
But it can never teach a heart to love!

You came and changed the dreams I dreamed,
You taught my longing how to speak your name.
And even if life takes us different ways,
There's a feeling that will always remain!

Maybe destiny has its reasons,
Maybe time will someday let us see.
But if someone asks me who lives inside my heart...

I'll simply smile...
And whisper that it's you.

Because destiny chose our meeting...
But my heart chose to love you.
