Maybe I'll leave you alone
Tonight just for a while
Just as the water has to run to keep the both of us alive
Please try to understand, and see through your tears
Maybe we'll never meet again
Secret moments we've shared
They are now thrown into the stream
Where two shadows row a boat full of dreams
So let the distance grow
We watch the waters flow
For love is like funny little bird; it has to fly
It flies just like the time with its wings so open wide
The future is on one wing, on the other flies the past
We can never trap time in a golden cage
And to chain love will only turn our lives into a lie
We'll be watching life floating on the rivers of time
But when we say: "No, no, it's mine!"
Its time to break the chains and let our souls fly away
Take this love, I offer it to you
My soul's burning like a torch
It will burn you to ash, if you wish
But if you can forget
It will help you to see they're just shadows dancing there
On the walls of dying dreams
Quiet, oh it's getting quiet as you float
Down, down the river deep
Into the cave of your past
Where you once met shapes and shadows dancing in the dark
Now they won't come alive
You float into the dawn
For love is like funny little bird; it has to fly
It flies just like the time with its wings so open wide
The future is on one wing, on the other flies the past
We can never trap time in a golden cage
And to chain love will only turn our lives into a lie
We'll be watching life floating on the rivers of time
But when we say: "No, no, it's mine!"
Its time to break the chains and let our souls fly away
