One night you held me in your arms Our hands linked, I felt our souls connect, and melt into one. That one night was pure beauty in my mind, complete and flawless. Like a perfect circle, without beginning or end. But behind my back Beyond my reach Evil dwelled, rearing its head And snatching you away. One night you held me in your arms once more, in perfect isolation. An intimacy beyond the comprehension of other human souls. Transcending reality. Never have I dreaded sunlight more, For tonight, it meant the end of our time together. Behind my back Before my very eyes Logic vanishes Friendship hides. One night, Once more you'll hold me in your arms. I'll feel the passion reignite Our hearts will once more illuminate with a forbidden love. The only aim in my dimming life, One goal, one single road to happiness. Your strong embrace to shelter me again. Behind my back Into the weeks to come Wishes unfulfilled Life come undone.
