Through the mist I see the face / of an angel who calls my name. / I remember you're the reason I have to stay
I'll find you somewhere / I'll keep on trying until my dying day.
I made a promise to revenge his soul in time / One by one they were surprised
Take my hand as I wander through / All my life I gave to you.
All of my memories keep you near / In silent moments imagine you here.
The sweetest thought, I had it all / Cause I did let you go / All our moments keep me warm when you're gone
But there is nothing but silence now / Around the one I loved / Is this our farewell?
Please say my name, remember who i am / you will find me in the world of yesterday
I see every smile you fake / Strong emotion, strong devotion to ignore the pain / To stand strong
In my world Love is for poets / Never the famous balcony scene
I wish for this night-time / to last for a lifetime
