Goodbye,
it breaks my heart.
Mind numb; soul aching,
pages of our life burnt to ash.
Still; I'm left with this longing desire,
to feel your passion once again.
All I see are shadows;
waving at me,
goodbye.
it breaks my heart.
Mind numb; soul aching,
pages of our life burnt to ash.
Still; I'm left with this longing desire,
to feel your passion once again.
All I see are shadows;
waving at me,
goodbye.
