So little time
your crystal eyes gaze into mine
a burning flame
forever dreaming, dreaming a lie
Trapped inside internal eyes
caressed by innocence, a sanctuary for you mind
born alone beneath pale sardonic skies
one love, one life, one sorrow
I won't reproach myself this time
a condemned man, granted a sweet reprieve
a turn of fate, a genial twist of the knife
undying affection for life
