lyrics

I want to see you with your smile when I see you looking down from above.

My body follows your cue of beautiful gestures.
Fingertips reach to touch desperately for love.
But a phantom crashes the stage and cheats the denouement.
The grand drapery is closed, the final bow is lost.

Whatever was meant to be, it’s no longer meant to be.
The phantom came and possessed me.
Resigns the leading lady.

I want to see you with your smile when I see you looking down from above.

I couldn’t let you go, I was too afraid to let you go and be your own woman.

But let me tell you that I will always love you.
