lyrics

I see you in the dull of a chamber,
You look the other way in the arm of a jailor.
I see you in every reflection,
For all I ever do is return to the past.
It's true what they say, a love affair never did run this way.
Togetherness made us sad - the chaos in the marriage of equal souls.

We were young, in need of adventure
Like every girl and boy with a colourful nature.
It takes two to cover harmony,
Ah! but then who ever gave us a chance?
It's true what they say, a love affair never did run this way.
Togetherness made us sad - the chaos in the marriage of equal souls.

Sing me a love song on the romance of life.
Light me a candle in the midst of a fire.
Remember the secret places in innocent days of reverie?
Forever to be alone, forever to be someone who had it all.

But then love is not like a candle,
It doesn't burn away, it endures in the detail.
I see you in the sway of a veil,
The way that we would dance irrespective of time
As the band performed our song, the one in which the heroine killed for love.
Togetherness made us sad, but a wed infinity gave us hope.

Sing me a love song on the romance of life.
Light me a candle in the midst of a fire.
Remember the secret places in innocent days of reverie?
As the band performed our song, the one in which the heroine killed for love.
Togetherness made us sad, but a wed infinity gave us hope.
