Description
Three short words - like a tiny spark that can light up an entire life. There is no pathos or grand gestures in this sound: just the soft light of a lamp, a quiet evening and a feeling that can be summed up in eight letters. Everything else becomes superfluous, like husks, because such words are a whole story in themselves.
The music seems to scatter old Hollywood glamour on the floor, mixing it with the warmth of a heartfelt confession. Nothing complicated, no flowery metaphors - just simplicity, honesty and the charm of the moment when language suddenly ceases to be confused and the heart speaks for both.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Three little words
Oh, what I'd give for that wonderful phrase
Just to hear those three little words
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days
And what I feel in my heart
They tell sincerely
No other words can tell it half so clearly
Three little words
Eight little letters
That simply mean I love you
Three little words
Oh, what I'd give for that wonderful phrase
Just to hear those three little words
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days
And what I feel in my heart
They tell sincerely
No other words can tell it half so clearly
Three little words
Eight little letters
That simply mean I love you
You, you, you
Three little words
Oh, what I'd give for that wonderful phrase
Just to hear those three little, three little
Three little, three little, three little words
That's all I'd live for the rest of my days
And what I feel in my heart
They tell sincerely
No other words can tell it half so clearly
Three little words
Eight little letters
That simply mean I love
Simply mean I love
Simply mean I love you, you, you, you
