I follow the home underneath the stars tonight

stars which show me the lies in your eyes and I

want to lie next to you

lie in your head, bath in your hair tonight

and carry away your eerie last goodbye

this evening breeze, all around us tonight

streams with my memories, now you and I

we merge right here, right now

turn to dust and fossilize tonight

never come back to life

bodies stiff like trees by the lake tonight

feel the rising freeze in your breath now, but I

I won't try to survive

that light in your mind is on your side tonight

only if you will keep on shining bright

and I know I will lose my poor trust tonight

thanks to you, you used to keep me alive, but I

don't need to see you anymore

'cause you finally fell in his dreadful trap tonight

just to be my only bride of the night

the queen of my dreams tonight
