xoxoemily,

I'm glad to be able to provide what you need! Since you've said that
this is the information you want, I am re-posting it as an official
answer in order to close out your question.

"Estelle" 
 
You can always recognize it 
Like you recognize the faith 
Once you've got it you won't lose it 
And it doesn't run away 
 
You can push it from your mind 
Never give it any time 
Say it isn't what I need 
But it's like holding back the sea 
 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
 
It's a mystic transformation 
From the darkness to the light 
It's as sudden as the morning 
Gotta keep an end in sight 
 
Where there's sadness in the moon 
There will be hope and light again, and soon 
 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
It fills up everywhere 
 
You can push it from your mind 
Never give it any time 
Say it isn't what I need 
But it's like holding back the sea 
 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
And it fills up, and it fills up everywhere 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere 
Love comes in and fills up everywhere

Apparantly the chorus is:
“Love comes in and fills up everywhere”

I've transcribed this as best I can, but I cannot make out the
dialogue in the background between a man and a little girl, which is
repeated numerous times during the song. It sounds as if the man may
be asking the little girl what her name is, and she responds
"Estelle." I can't tell what language the man is speaking.

Here are the lyrics as I understand them:

"Estelle"

You can always recognize it
Like you recognize the faith
Once you've got it you won't lose it
And it doesn't run away

You can push it from your mind
Never give it any time
Say it isn't what I need
But it's like holding back the sea

Love comes in and fills up everywhere
Love comes in and fills up everywhere

It's a mystic transformation
From the darkness to the light
It's as sudden as the morning
Gotta keep an end in sight

Where there's sadness in the moon
There will be hope and light again, and soon

Love comes in and fills up everywhere
Love comes in and fills up everywhere
It fills up everywhere

You can push it from your mind
Never give it any time
Say it isn't what I need
But it's like holding back the sea

Love comes in and fills up everywhere
Love comes in and fills up everywhere
And it fills up, and it fills up everywhere
Love comes in and fills up everywhere
Love comes in and fills up everywhere
