Come

Enter the room while the world rests silently
Pull down the curtain, a veil upon my eyes
Shelter me from all the pains now

Enter my world, dream the road from my heart
And play the piano black of my soul
Close now the door
Leave this vanity behind

Come out, come out
Leave all the shadows behind
Step into the night to join the dark
Unveil the heart I used to hide deep
Sail those waters of an untold sea

A hand will write a path
One or another leads still to North
Dream of a heart, one final life
Last kite, a petal of love
Falls down before the dawn
Untouched, undrawn

The piano plays a dream, a memory
Beyond the horizon we used to sail across the sea
Two souls, two hearts — you and me
