The Way

Up on the balcony

I watched you walk away but I couldn't see

that this parting kiss was forever, oh come back to me

Yet another summer without you, soon fall will be there

but comes winter I guess I'll be over in Cornwall somewhere

I try walking in our footsteps

These days passing in a time lapse

I went trough anger, hate and frustration

searching for some kind of revokation

We couldn't fail? How did it happen?

Just for a dare? Everything's shattered...

Darkness embrace me, I'm misplaced here

This is the wrong score, stranded on a strange shore...

The way we were

Yes, our hearts were beating together til something occured

Now you're up there somewhere in Scotland and I'm left in midair

guess I'm waiting for your return eternally

but comes the end of December, let it rain down on me...

What have we found? Just a rebound

was it worth the price we paid?

What have we gained after these strains?

Remember Penzance Promenade...

What's the truth? The importance of who's right or wrong?

I don't care, cause the nights without you are much too long

Each day my heart is gettin' colder

The burden's heavy on my shoulder

over and over I see the same scene

trapped in a nightmare, not just a bad dream

Couldn't run coz I was petrified

Tried to swallow my foolish pride

Or cities are lost forever so it seems

missing you so much it makes me want to scream

Last night I had a dream

Me flying high above the sea in the sky

with my arms wide open dazzling clouds passing by

And the mermaids' song guiding me on my way

to the coastline with its cliffs of chalk and clay

I'm trying hard to keep my eyes shut

The things I see they are not clear-cut

No matter how I try to get you out of my mind

somewhere you're still there and I wish that I was blind

This time there'll be no substitution

just like with former dissolutions

Occupying my heart hence there'll be no new start

A devotion as deep as the ocean

A saturday back in September

the golden sunlight in your eyes

This day I always will remember

You were the fairest of all brides

The sun has gone, we're on our own

Our paradise, a fragile dream

A void is calling, and I'm falling

into time's adamant stream

Called your name into the night but you're gone

Still a flame might arise from the embers at dawn

I want to be again on our way back home

I want to be again on our way back home

I want to be again on our way back home

I want to be again on our way back home

Come to me, come to me

come to me across the sea

come to me, come to me

together in eternity...
