it seems like nothing is real
as it all slips like sand beneath my fingers
in slow motion, i see my dreams just drift away
chosen by the wind to deal its purging blow
enough! i cry... my agony in its utmust tower
shutting out the light in that single window
i'm lost in the vision of this sifting sand
and all that is left is to cry... just to moan
can't ever have what i desire
i've thrown it all away
even if i stepped into the light
i've thrown it all away...
i'm losing my mind indefinitely... i am drowned
and the only thing that can rescue me
is this sinking sand
and the love therein
oh welcoming embrace of breath
to breathe in the aroma of her scent
to caress what i fear i will never see
and to be lost in her eyes of the never-ending sea...
but to refuse her soft lips just to look into her eyes
one more moment to unwind the past...
one more second and i grasp the sand that keeps on falling
but it's blowing away in the wind
the wind has blown away my love...
searching this cave, i wander on
and more shadows do i see
...with my piercing light i chase them into hiding
but still i cannot see my love...
what torture... so ill at ease...
impale me so that i feel physical pain
because this torment is more than i can bear...
oh welcoming embrace of breath
to breathe in the aroma of her scent
to caress what i fear i will never see
and to be lost in her eyes of the never-ending sea...
but to refuse her soft lips just to look into her eyes
one more moment to unwind the past...
one more second.....to be free.
