I am here to tell you we can never meet again
Simple really, isn't it?
A word or two and then
A lifetime of not knowing
Where or how or why or when
You think of me or speak of me
Or wonder what befell
The someone you once loved
So long ago, so well
Never wonder what a fearless living shuffles by
You don't have to ask me
And I did not reply
Every moment of my life
Now until I die
I will think or dream of you
I'm compelled to understand
How a perfect love can be confounded out of hand
Is it written in the stars?
I'll be paid for some crime
Is that all that we are good for?
Just a strange immortal time
This God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But holy for a day
Nothing can be altered
There is nothing to decide
No escape, no change of heart
No any place to hide
You are all I'll ever want
But this I am denied
Sometimes in my darkest thoughts
I wish I'd never learned
What it is to be in love
And have that love return
Is it written in the stars?
I'll be paid for some crime
Is that all that we are good for?
Just a strange immortal time
This God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But holy for a day
Is it written in the stars?
I'll be paid for some crime
Is that all that we are good for?
Just a strange immortal time
In this God's experiment
In which we have no say
In which we're given paradise
But holy for a day
But holy for a day
