I am circulating around the Earth,
To find hopes and colorful flowers.
I’d been falling. Into the infinite longing and fear.
I’d been falling for you. Deep and far further than should be.

I’m floating, the waves of tears carry me on their backs.
I’m too heavy and might not manage.
Drowning in the dry ocean, only my tears hold me up,
I know, I missed my chance with you when in Vienna.

I would now give it up – I’m ready to move.
Hungary, Scotland, and Luxembourg.
Cause I am still falling, I am still into you.
Could you see me at the city hall?

Scrolling your photos when in your town, on my own.
I barely can see from the sun, but you’re still beautiful.
Wait, who is that with you?
Thousand knives on my skin, babel noise in my head,
No clear vision, numbness.

Emptiness. I’m no woman without you.
I came to find hopes and colorful flowers.
Though, found you happily together with someone else.
Now I’m falling deeper and deeper.
Far further than should be.

I came to the point where it’s over
I do not want your destructive power.
I do not want to come and do not want to love.
You. Are enough. You are enough.

Respect stays, love goes. Away.
I still come and visit your town, Aberdeen.
For the sake of Aberdeen.
Haggis, pie and architecture,
Instead of painful longing and constant rejection.

Would be nice to see you,
Would be nice to talk.
Would be pain and sour?
Or would be safe and sound?

Safe and sound? Doubt about.
Want my mind to clear out.
Want the beach to ******* away
Want the wind to touch my skin.
See the sea and its waves to carry
Carry and bury all the worries
Start a chapter with new characters.

Farewell! To you and to all the pain.
Do not let its place taken by you and me.
You and me? What dream is that?
How would it even work considering the distance?
Have all you deserve as happiness and love,
We might see each other in our next lives!
