The Longing
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Under the veil of secrecy
Never realising what you mean to me
Time after time, it's always the same
Another sleepless night ahead
Watching from a distance, adoring from afar
Trapped in eternal sorrow, wishing on a star
Time after time, it's always the same
When will you see me? Why can't you see me?
When will you hear me? Why can't you hear me?
I'm calling out your name, screaming at the sky
Longing so for you, burning from inside
Look into my eyes, then you will see why
The longing never ends, my love will never die
When will I be free?
So many centuries passed by
There is nothing more I can do
I've followed you through time
I will forever stay two steps behind
How many lifetimes tortured for my crime?
Time after time, it's always the same
Will you ever know my name?
Watching from a distance,adoring from afar
Trapped in eternal sorrow, wishing on a star
