== Lyrics ==
<pre>Just feel the love around you
This love's enough, it shines through
So take my hand and you'll see
It's time for make believe

When you feel the light that shines on you
You'll know that I'll be with you soon
When you hear me say that I love you
You'll know that it's come true

So take me in your arms
and hold me now (I'll show you how)
I never want to stop, can't get enough
Of this thing called love

So take me in your arms
and shout it out (Oh so loud)
Together we can reach the sky above
It's a thing called love

Just feel the love around you
My love's enough to shine through
So take my hand and hold me
It's time so just believe

When you see the light that shines so true
You'll know that I'll be with you soon
When you hear me say that I love you
You'll know this dream's come true</pre>

== Song Production Information ==
=== D-crew ===
Hi all! Well, initially I was going to sing this song myself but I had a certain American girl, with amazing blonde hair, sing it instead because her voice was a perfect match for the song.<br>
I could not avoid her voice nor her beauty. (I mean, she was really, really, HOT!)<br>
Anyway... the track sounded more mature and reserved, with less taste of techno, at the beginning of the composition but I transformed it into a much stronger dance track.<br>
If I have a chance someday I wanna sing the song, in its original arrangement, myself.<br>
Well, hope you enjoy it. Peace!
