The light of our life begins to fade You are gone and I am alone And our portrait by light betrayed And all those things that we shared Are now to eternal rest laid
I am your passion Your slowing colour Your heart unbeating Your heart never beaten (for me)
You were my opera And I was your phantom Forever was I bound To your palace, so beautiful But you never learned to understand me Not my pain nor my agony
It was heavenly love I sought for But I only discovered ruin and emptiness And now I feel like I am In love with an angel But married to a whore
