Текст песни
The dark of night, the empty house
The city shines with a million lights
The rough scar on my heart arouses
An old pain, throbbing through the nights
I see our kitchen, snug and tight
Your hands, my shoulders gently gripped
The world was wonderful and burning bright
We flew as one inside our dreams
We were so close—quivered with desire
But we ourselves crushed all to dust
Your words as knives with blades of fire
We’re not meant to be together now
A farewell kiss to end the long night
The smeared mascara on my cheek
Your silhouette in the doorway pale light
Two hearts drawn on your hand I'll keep
In heated fights and flames of passion
We burned our love down to the ground
We let our feelings turn to ashes
And pain, not warmth, is what we found
I still recall that long and dark night
When we sat staring through the glass
It all seemed small, it all seemed so slight
I couldn't care less. Let it pass
You didn't ask me to forgive you
I couldn't find the words to mend
I couldn't take the "no" you gave me
That last goodbye became the end
One word "forgive" would ease the pain
The wall of hurt would fall apart
But we had valued pride in vain
More than the love given to our hearts
A farewell kiss to end the long night
The smeared mascara on my cheek
Your silhouette in the doorway pale light
Two hearts drawn on your hand I'll keep
In heated fights and flames of passion
We burned our love down to the ground
We let our feelings turn to ashes
And pain, not warmth, is what we found
If I could only turn back time
I wouldn't shout and lose my voice
I would have held you, kept you mine
And never known that empty void
Nothing can be fixed anymore
The pain inside has gone from me
My sorrow melts away for sure
Be happy… just a shame you're not with me
A shame you're not with me!
Not with me!
Not with me!
A farewell kiss to end the long night
The smeared mascara on my cheek
Your silhouette in the doorway pale light
Two hearts drawn on your hand I'll keep
In heated fights and flames of passion
We burned our love down to the ground
We let our feelings turn to ashes
And pain, not warmth, is what we found
