[Verse 1]

I saw you walking only yesterday

When I ran to catch you

You disappeared and the street was gray

The candle died, now you are gone

For the flame was too bright

Now you are gone

[Verse 2]

I heard you laughing with your laugh of gold

When I called out to you

Silence returned and the air was cold

The castle fell, now you are gone

And no more rings the bell

Now you are gone

[Verse 3]

I found a letter on the day it rained

When I tore it open

There in my hands, only ash remained

The castle fell, now you are gone

And no more rings the bell

Now you are gone

[Verse 4]

I felt you breathing as I fell asleep

When I reached out to touch you

No one was there and the night was deep

The candle died, now you are gone

For the flame was too bright

Now you are gone

[Verse 5]

I saw you walking only yesterday

When I ran to catch you

You disappeared and the street was gray

The castle fell, now you are gone

No more rings the bell

Now you are gone
