City of Hopes

In my city of dreams all lost
I walk alone and hopeless
Still recalling words of yours
I try to find out the cruel truth

Are you done with me?
I just want to know
If heart could still live with hope
Is it the end of this story?
I just want to know

If it ever meant to be, if it has to hurt
Within my heart ever dreamt of love
In my memory burnt
Deep in the sea or far above
In pale sky of fallen hope

Coming home I see the same picture in my head
I close my eyes and slowly go mad
Lying alive but deep in heart I feel like dead
If you are here just hear my call

Are you done with me?
I just want to know
If heart could still live with hope
Is it the end of this story?
I just want to know

To take your hand, to feel a heartbeat, to look in your eyes again
To drown in deep lost sea one more time
For storytime, for pale ghost of memory
Tell me now if you are done with me

I walk again to my city of dreams
To see your grace again
To feel this sweet breathless pain
To be lost in your city of dreams

Are you done with me?
I just want to know
If heart could still live with hope
Is it the end of this story?
I just want to know

If it ever meant to be, if it has to hurt
Within my heart ever dreamt of love
In my memory burnt
Deep in the sea or far above
In pale sky of fallen hope
