I fell into the flame
Oh that spark
I am to blame
For the dark

I go into shadows
And worry
I feel I'm in the gallows
And now, sorry

Decisions ... taken
Are decisions done
Soon you awaken
Your dream is gone

Can dreams come true?

I want to climb steps to wonder
I want to touch and kiss
I want desire; and go yonder
I'd feel total bliss

I want to love again
Have that sweetness of love
Don't want my heart in pain
And feel free like a dove

There is something missing
I still can't see you
I experience this longing
My heart; cradle anew

Where are you?

Why pretend feelings I don't feel
Why accept situations I don't need
Why let my life be stolen; it's surreal
Why risk my heart to bleed?

Am I chasing moonbeams?
I can't afford to make mistakes with wrong men
Be real, at my age: no more dreams
But I'll fall in love again; I just don't know when ...

I can ... almost touch you!
