She is afraid of what she’s doing
she fights her body with her pride
because there’s no one on her side
but so many ones to miss
I’m still a-hearing of her stories
try to find out who she is and
what she ‘s dreaming of when
she is sunken in her memories
Sick of the shadows of her childhood
sick of the haze of our world
and all the feelings she has taken of the good times
they are gone for good
my precious friend you have been taken
or have I just gone away
all the memories taken with me
and the wish to make you stay
one love is growing - the other buried in the past
some get a magnificent funeral - some of them ended too fast
the river’s flowing
taking precious time away
and if I’m the one who’s going you must
be the one to stay
I’m still alive but I am ruined
ravaged, plundered, beaten down
but I know someday you’ll be changing
I know someday you will
my precious friend you have been taken
or have I just gone away
all the memories taken with me
and the wish to make you stay
