Lost to the memory of a perfect soul
deep in the shadows of unrelenting wounds
can´t disappear inside a dream
when pain opens up your heart

you can fear the dark, and hope for the light
when you feel the pain inside
you can cry out loud and pray for the dawn
you´ll find yourself in newborn eyes
and burn away the foolish lies of love

you can´t remember who you are
when you wake up alone in the dark
the love you felt, so far away
fled from the darkness of your soul

we were always meant to be
so you believed
love would never, ever end
only a fool would watch
as the stars faded into winter snow
touched by the tears
of falling angels screaming out for
one more chance to feel first love again
cursed with the memory of her breath

in the dark, in the light
in the cold heart beating out to find
true love
in the cold, in the heat
in the fear that tomorrow never holds
true love

in the dark, in the light (lost to the heart of sea)
in the memories loving her and (memories drift away)
dream of true love (the past but a shade - lost to the waves)
your´re a fool, you´re a saint (my journey here)
you are everything and nothing (a lifetime ago)
we lost true love (lost to the waves - all that I know)

every time you keep on crying
"hope is dead"

yes we had love once, yes we had joy once
yes we had light once, and we were one once
yes we were young once, yes we were fools once
yes we had love once

you were my whole world, you were my true friend
you were my light and dark, you were my everything
you took from me my life, you took from me my worth
you took from me my death, now i am nothing but

an empty soul, in darkness crawling out
an empty soul that once felt love
an empty soul, in the darkness spiral up
the lies and dreams we shared
the key was in ourselves

if i can trust myself, if i can heal our world
if i can free the bonds of love
then we can kill the ghost
that haunts us everywhere

the ghost of love that never loved
