Текст песни
For all these years
I kept a fire no one could see
I dressed my heart in letters
Signed by someone else, not me
I taught his shaking voice
To reach your window in the rain
And every word that made you love him
Carried pieces of my name
He had the face before you
I had the lines you kept
You chose the man who held you
And never knew who wept
Forgive me, I have come again
Not to claim what time has healed
Only to lay the truth down gently
Only to let it be revealed
Show me your dream
Tell me what love became
Forgive these words
If they came too late again
They fell from the silence
Like petals after rain
It doesn't matter now
I gave them away
So many nights I watched you
From the shadow of the scene
A man with a blade in daylight
A poet left unseen
My pride could face the thunder
My tenderness would hide
I won a thousand duels
And lost the war inside
Words were living water
They raised the dead in me
But what is love, if holding on
Means stealing someone's wings?
Forgive me, I have come again
With nothing left to prove
The bravest thing I ever did
Was disappear in love
Show me your dream
Tell me what love became
Forgive these words
If they came too late again
They fell from the silence
Like petals after rain
It doesn't matter now
I gave them away
Forgive me, now I see it
The voice behind the voice
In every line he gave me
I hear your hidden choice
No more masks between us
No borrowed name, no lie
I cannot live without those words
I cannot let them die
Don't ask the old wounds to speak tonight
The night has had its say
The love that burns too close to you
Must learn to step away
Don't be silent - can't you see?
I'm here. I know. I'm still
You say you cannot live without me
You will
And that will be
My final proof of love
Show me your dream
Tell me what love became
Forgive these words
If they came too late again
They fell from the silence
Like petals after rain
It doesn't matter now
I gave them away
Show me your dream
Carry what love became
Keep all the words
That once arrived too late again
Let them be light for you
Not chains around your name
It doesn't matter now
I gave them away
You will breathe
You will rise
You will carry the light
If my words were a flame
In your beautiful night
Let them warm, not bind
Let them lead, not stay
I loved you long enough
To give you away
I knew
Then that is enough
