[01:31.581] Young girl with roses in her eyes
[01:36.063] Sits on a bed of white sheets
[01:41.807] The lights are off, the gloom begins
[01:45.324] To thicken as she waits
[01:54.038] She's waiting alone in the dark
[01:57.227] (waiting...)
[01:59.059] Where is the sun and flowered park?
[02:02.392] (we're always waiting...)
[02:04.333] Why do they always meet in shadow?
[03:23.591] Young girl with roses in her eyes
[03:26.116] (I'm as close as your breathing...)
[03:28.802] Waits for the phosphorescent mouth
[03:31.512] (but you can't hear me...)
[03:33.717] It's blue and comes upon her neck
[03:37.691] In whispers like dry grass
[03:46.168] She's waiting for her lover's voice
[03:49.759] (I tried to talk to you...)
[03:51.189] The sun is gone, the music plays
[03:54.991] (but you wouldn't listen...)
[03:56.033] From the street corner and she cries
[05:59.573] Young girl with roses in her eyes
[06:04.934] Hugs close the dark and cries
[06:09.806] The words she hears are weak
[06:13.504] Her lover is not asleep, he's dead
[06:22.626] She feels his breathing by her side
[06:27.589] He reaches across the border
[06:32.446] Stretching his boneless hand towards her
[06:52.394] (...Death is silent, painless
[06:55.632] I didn't know what happened
[06:58.421] I was suddenly standing above my body
[07:01.882] While you looked on
[07:02.866] Too much in shock for tears
[07:06.581] I tried to speak
[07:09.048] But couldn't
[07:11.480] I tried to talk to you
[07:14.271] But you wouldn't listen
[07:18.459] And now we meet
[07:21.657] Like guilty lovers in the dark
[07:25.804] For such a hopeless moment
[07:29.841] And even as we meet, I feel you slipping from me
[07:36.418] And I go back
[07:40.183] To my darkness...)
[08:03.484] The girl with roses in her eyes
[08:04.581] (my spirit lingers after you like a faint stream of clouds...)
[08:07.986] Speaks with her lover who is here
[08:11.329] (my mouth hovers about you forever...)
[08:13.116] Like vines their voices intertwine
[08:18.569] It is all they have
[08:21.082] (I see you waiting for me... summoning up the power as the light dies...)
[08:26.027] She struggles to hold him back
[08:28.660] (that light we loved...)
[08:31.376] He clutches but the power is gone
[08:35.747] And the pillow turns to chalk
[08:57.544] (Don't go, don't go, don't go...)
[09:01.797] (Please don't go...)
[09:11.958] (I'm slipping...)
[09:15.291] (I tried to speak but couldn't
[09:29.413] And now we meet like guilty lovers in the dark
[09:36.262] For such a hopeless moment
[09:46.867] And even as we meet, I feel you slipping from me
[09:57.907] And I go back to my darkness...)
