You took my heart, deceived me right from the start, you showed me dreams. I wish they’d turn into real, you broke a promise. And made me realize it was all just a lie…
Called back to consciousness by a faint light, by the memory of a fleeting dream and the fading remnant
Of your voice,
The vivid stirring of that for-distant past keeps reflecting a scene that now I can no longer see still at my side, smiling, you are here
Oh, clearly as though it was yesterday,
I still remember it!
That one glance, which touched me more
Deeply than anyone else ever had…
And that near miraculous encounter
And even the last traces of what we were together—
All of it, deserted, vanishing away…
From within those vanishing memories,
I yearn to hold you just one more time
To the verge of pain. I keep crying out your name
Until my voice is warn to silence
“Where is it that people come from, and where do they go?”
My precious, gentle one,
You are no longer here
I want to hold you in my arms
As you stand there with your head downcast
Because I’ve realized that I want
Is to protect you, more than anyone else
In the whole world
Soon now, very soon, I too will disappear, yet…
Even so, you are the last one thing I can’t
Bear to let you go
Those days when you held me to the verge of pain…
I will never forget…
