Let Go…

Warmth of the past still smoulders within
Giving yet no hope
Nothing at all
Because all the love, all the feelings
All is gone

You told me to forget so I did so
Without a thrill
I’ve turned all my memories to ashes
Forgetting my longing
And all the pain I used to caress
There is no home for me anymore

As you told me to turn it loose
I leave it behind
Ripping it out of my mind
Just to hold you tight
And to be forever yours

The one to wipe my tears
And take away all lonely years
I’ve been seeking for so long
I finally found in you, love

Cold of the past saddens me no more
No melody tortures, no verse hurts
All those songs are but songs
Because the real is here, right before my eyes
Finally without a veil, open wide
