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...
