[Verse]

So sweet caress, never long to last

You entered my soul and gave hope to my life

So sweet caress, never hope to last

You left me behind all alone and aghast

Capured inside such an austere Elysium


[Chorus]

Imperfect feelings, futile greef

Love a device against all solitude

As it all went on, the love became

A field in a dream that once had been real


[Verse]

So sweet caress, never long to last

Destroy this illusion we need a change of fate

Your frantic thoughts are only a condemned cry


[Chorus]

Imperfect feelings, futile greef

Love a device against all solitude

As it all went on, the love became

A field in a dream that once had been real


[Bridge 1: Choir]

Primo somniare videbamur

Deinde veritas se praecipitavit


[Bridge 2: Simone Simons & Choir]

I secretly longed for something which had never existed

First I thought it was a dream

But then it smashed into reality

Beautiful on the outside

Decayed deeply within

I secretly longed for something which had never existed


[Outro: Simone Simons & Choir]

Devoted to a body without a soul

Numquam non tibi diffidam
