about

Originally composed around 1994/95 and almost made it onto the 'Of Romance & Fire' demo from that time. From that original version the main verse riffs and the riff that follows each verse have survived more or less intact. Some lyrics also have been kept. The quiet chilled out bit in the middle is a variation of the original more basic theme. The start riff is new, melodies mostly new and the end riff is new also.

lyrics

So sad I grieve alone
For from this heart all love has gone
And though these words are laced
The kiss I gave was forever
Withered are the Autumn leaves
The leaves that once filled the trees
In our lonesome Summer meadow
Alas her elegance forsakes her too

Cherished the air we breathe, now rancid, diseased
Betrayed by fates desire, the hollow words of thieving liars
A scent so pure, so free was lost to me
Consumed by falling grace, the Earth was laid to waste

Tears cannot erase the loss of a dream to which I cling
A fading memory of her smile I chase

In ever-deepening sorrow I dwell
Ever-lasting torment and pain
As I lay to rest her silent whispers tempting me
But as I rise....so far away
That smile I'm chasing is haunting me
