Why had I sold my wings...

Why had I sold my wings for love?
For love that now is slowly dying…
I beg you, oh, please just stop trying
To persuade me it’s alive!

Don’t look into my eyes:
I’ve tried to hide my tears,
I’ve tried to calm my cries
In vain… So face my fears!

You’d somehow made it real
What seemed to me a game!
You’d taught me how to feel!
And I will never be the same!

You know, I tried to be unfaithful
To find someone “to fill the gap”!
But realized: I only hurt them…
This love for me – a golden trap!

I loved you from that very day…
You told me that you loved me…
But, listen, we are worlds away!
I can’t believe you will be near!

“However, I’m here…
I’ll calm you with a kiss…
I’ll wipe your lonely tear…
Believe me that I miss…”

And darkness’s all around…
My head’s awfully aching!!!
I hear strange ringing sound…
Oh God, I’m just awaking!

Alas!

Why had I sold my wings? Oh why?
I still feel: I can wave them… fly…
And yet I have to face the truth:
You are so far… but I’m with you!
