The Longing - Adastra

Like a newborn child

Staring at the stars

I look at you

And wonder how

Someone can look so divine

We lay aside tonight

Alone in the dark

I drown in your eyes

And wonder how

Someone can look so divine

In love we tread

Hand in hand

On this velvet bed

You rest your head

Slowly closing your eyes

All that time that I knew you well

In a different world of love I dwelled

I was a fortress that nothing could break

I was more than someone could take

Drunk out of love every night we were

Passed out waking with a feel so real

The scent you bore was too much to take

You were more than I could take

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die

Day after day, you keep on fading away

Lie after lie, where did emotions die

Night after night, thinking was I right?

Remember the things that I used to say

Remember the things that got in our way

No one could stop us when we were on our way

They could’ve tried but never win

Out of the blue like a lightning strike

Came a conclusion of parting ways

Once this wheel of fortune started to roll around

There was no one who would block its path

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die

Day after day, you keep on fading away

Lie after lie, where did emotions die

Night after night, thinking was I right?

Into the open arms of night I cast myself

A leap into the dark that swallows me

Where on the way

Did you forget me?

Where on the way

Did I forget you?

Where on the way

Took the strangest turn

Where on the way

Did the road start to fade

Where did you go?

Where is the love

I am the loneliest man

Alive

Where did you go?

Where is the love

I am the loneliest man

Alive

Lie after lie, where did our feelings die

Day after day, you keep on fading away

Lie after lie, where did emotions die

Night after night, thinking was I right?

Like a newborn child

Staring at the stars

I look at you

And wonder how

Someone can look so divine
