Song:   Lovers
Album:  The Road, The Pain

Darkness – my place to hide like a shadow but my heart is open wide.
How can these things agree? I feel I’m full of love but this love is never free.
And here inside my heart there’s confusion like a stormy sea at night.
My thoughts all drift away, nothing’s clear, but somehow this feels right.

Yes, it’s you I’m thinking of and you don’t know maybe noone ever will.
If I would show you all my love, how could I be sure that not your confidence gets killed.
And as you pass my way how can I reach out – I just don’t have a clue.
And even if I knew how could I find the certitude you wouldn’t leave me blue?

If you’d just look deep into my eyes, maybe you’d look right into my heart.
If I could face you without disguise without coming apart.

What if we became lovers, finding each other on our way through this dreadful life?
And if we were lovers, maybe our jaded hearts could get revived.
Yes, we two as lovers, starting a whole new life, somewhere far away.
With noone above us but the moon and sun when they shift from night to day.

Lonelyness - though I’m not alone here in this world and there’s people all around.
Can’t seem to breathe when you’re not there, I’m desperate now, feels like drowning deep in the ground.
I hate myself for these feelings, ask myself, whrere’s my self-assurance gone?
Oh and sometimes I even hate you though so innocent but baby you cut me to the bone!

If you could see me from where you are, maybe you’d see me in a different way.
If you could just get a glimpse from the far. What else can I say?

What if we became lovers, finding each other on our way through this dreadful life?
And if we were lovers, maybe our jaded hearts could get revived.
Yes, we two as lovers, starting a whole new life, somewhere far away.
With noone above us but the moon and sun when they shift from night to day.

And so I go on my way alone like lost soul without a home In a world with hearts of stone…
