It started as a fairytail
Who would guess the future trail?
Pulled away by a mysterious force
Somewhere on the road we've lost the course.

I'm sorry, my love, I couldn't succeed
Deep down I knew you wanted to be freed.

I couldn't save you
I couldn't help
I couldn't raise you
I couldn't yelp

Drowned in despair
And overwhelmed by darkness
I tried to repair
Not knowing it could harness.

I'm sorry it ended the way it did
I always thought we did splendid.
I never wanted to end it this way
But you didn't give me a choice anyway.

I would break my bones trying to hold you
Holding you, so you wouldn't fall apart
Up to the sky I was trying to pull you
Even though it was crushing my heart.
And after the effort
You still pushed me away
But I wanted to stay
And water the desert.

I fell in love with your soul
I always knew that it wasn't foul.
Now how am I supposed to love another being
When I already know how tastes this feeling?
You opened up like a beautiful flower
And I loved you until the very last hour.

Oh, the scar is deep, my love
My body now would rather starve.
I can't heal it, it just won't go
Why have we always said no?

The emptiness is unbearable
The loneliness is terrible.

I hate that I can't reach you anymore
I can't even reach to the core.
Long ago we've lost the glow
I guess it's time to finally let go.

I'll just try to hold on somehow
Not thinking that I broke the vow.
I swear now that I won't cry
Goodbye, my love, forever goodbye.
