When every evening shadow begins to appear
Memories of you flow and engulf me, my dear
They smoothly linger by, my endless thoughts so gray
About all we experienced those past precious days
Without any warning, you have left suddenly
But I have no time to shed brimming tears for thee
For I still have you, this I absolutely know
Your ghost enters my mind wherever I may go
I shall never forget you, this I truly swear
I can still feel your presence in the cold night's air
I know that you are there with me, forever near
Thus your absence is not my real ultimate fear
It is just hopeless longing which will end quite soon
Though I am a lover, accomplice of the moon
It is indeed true that if you learn how to love
Someone more than yourself, next to the One above
It will hurt, the tender moment that he is gone
Yet we cannot undo what is already done
It is never considered our fault however
This work of Fate, its uncontrollable power
It is certainly a definite foolishness
To fall deeply in love and remain in blindness
I cannot escape the spell, what else can I do
When my heart goes on beating fervently for you?
I shall just continue to meet you in my dreams
In my twilight slumber beneath the stars' bright gleams!
