Deep it must have been

The thorn that spread the wheel

Of constancy, oh why

Times in stalemate

Times in certitude

Again and again this wound

Oh, it's these moments

When the comfort of the bygone

And the light of long-gone days

Enchant me with their hollow songs

And grasp for me

With their stone-cold hands

Rainy morning

When the past that comes along

And trials run way too close to fall

For today I do remember

The bitter tears that fall

We shed on a day like this

When both we know that you knew

Pain would grow for you

But we pretended joy would flourish

From the time we turned our backs

Saw you rise among the leaves

Heard you weeping in repose

Drank your tears with the water

Followed your footmarks in the moss

Oh, it's these moments

When the comfort of the bygone

And the light of long-gone days

Enchant me with their hollow songs

And before me with a sudden appeal

When both we know that you knew

Pain would grow for you

But we pretended joy would flourish

From the time we turned our backs

When both we know that you knew

Pain would grow for you

But we pretended joy would flourish

From the time, from the time

From the time we turned our backs

When both we know that you knew

Pain would grow for you

But we pretended joy would flourish

From the time we turned our backs

When both we know that you knew

Pain would grow for you

But we pretended joy would flourish

From the time, from the time

From the time we turned our backs
