Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
The saddest story ever told
The perfect glory so all alone
And I could love you till kingdom come
I might not deserve you, but save you from
The saddest story ever told
Loving only what you behold
In your own reflection, when love is here
All your pretension, I hold you dear
The saddest story ever told
Narcissistic glory to be all alone
And I could show you, listen what I say
To feel real love is to give it away
A happy ending will never be with Narcissus dying
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus, Narcissus
Rosebud, Narcissus
Touch me, reach out your hand
Oh, if you fall in love
With your own reflection like it was planned
You would die in love
Failing to feel or to understand
Just I can give
Narcissus, I the nymph
The Rosebud
Narcissus, see me turn into sand
If you fall in love
With your reflection you may be damned
But, darling, I could
Teach you to feel and to understand
Narcissus, my love
Thy love Echo
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
Be in love, be in love, be in love
Be in love, be in love, be in love with me
Narcissus
