lyrics

Drifting by
Or blending together
Like two streams
From the mountain peak
Parting unwillingly
All is imperfect
In this intimacy
Where I exalt and humiliate myself

You picked the parts
Of my unrest
So what is next
Too much love
Dazzled my eyes
On that moment in time
So anxious to connect
But there’s a river to cross
Oh how, oh how
The past weighs on your side
Hope can make fools of us all
But I know
We didn’t try enough

Resign yourself
To the forbidden love
You understand so well
Who you’ll betray
Who you can save
With all your prayers
Your cynical innocence
Knows that there’s no more looking back
I don’t know how or when
Something of love has got to end
But I know
We didn’t try enough

Is it a goodbye?
No more to say
The secret is gone
Another and one
And so it’s goodbye
No more to say
Your secret is gone
I’m another and one

A faraway song
A lonely voice
From the nightly peace
Another dawn
Awakens me
Then I cry
I cry the days gone by
Like so many shadows
Flying by
I don’t know how or when
Something of love has got to end
But I know
We didn’t try enough

Is it a goodbye?
No more to say
The secret is gone
Another and one
And so it’s goodbye
No more to say
The secret is gone
I’m another and one

Your secret has gone
I’m another and one
