Lyrics

How can it end?
Refrain

Where do all the dreams return
When they melt away?
Where do all the broken hearted songs
Stop singing
And resign themselves to fate?
Why did you go
Through we were running freely
Through open meadows of fire and waterfalls?
I thought we'd always last
In this story we brought into being

Now all I am is leaving me so slowly
I'll never understand why I'm lonely
We once had it all
It comes in my mind in shattered little frames
All of the times my heart hears you name
I loved you
I loved you in my universe
