Another Year

April 25th, 1989

  

I can hear you whispering in my heart, in my ear

What's another year my love?

What's another year!?!

I hold your shadow close to my heart with blood-red tears

Imagining the future without you crossing my heart with fear


The golden cross is sighing since that night

Apologizing to his God for acting so wild

White flowers are consoling at your grave

Kneeling to their goddess queen as a slave


I asked every flower, every tree

Every nature, every ocean and sea

Would she come back?

Would God set her free?

They cried...

But never answered me!


Now time has come to blow away your first candle

Blowing up the tears that I can no more handle

It's been a year since you passed away

Since the power of nature stole my fiancée


I close my eyes wishing it was a nightmare

Again I open them to face more unbearable pain

I keep dreaming to see that smile shining on your face again

But tears start falling from my eyes like rain
