It was like if the skies Had kissed the earth to death And if my soul opened widely up its wings It was like if the wind Had carried me away Up to a silent star Going bright before descent It was like if I had been broken in twain And it felt like every piece of me died Serenades floated through empty air Carried by eternal silence Longing crawled right through me Everywhere cooling from within It was like if the moon Had cheered the shades on dancing And if my eyes could see Through the darkness all around me It was like if the fields Had lost their lime-green shine And all the purples and the reds Had turned to grey Serenades floated through empty air Carried by eternal silence Longing crawled right through me Everywhere cooling from within Once again my horizon ends Singing a sad song waiting for so long Leaving my old home I found myself alone Serenades floated through empty air Carried by eternal silence Longing crawled right through me Everywhere cooling from within Serenades floated through empty air Carried by eternal silence Longing crawled right through me Everywhere cooling from within
