Would you think me insane If I were to tell you that you have set me free That knowing you has taught me About who I am meant to be? Something I thought long since dead Deep inside myself Was awakened when you looked at me Like there was no one else A renewed sense of who I am Invigorates the soul I now believe in fairy tales And love I do extol It is not a passing breeze of caring More like a hurricane-force wind That knocks you over and lifts you up Like you're flying from within Two hearts connected silently Across a million miles Melancholy fades away With just the memory of a smile How can it be that circumstance Deals such a cruel, cruel hand To temper fated torture Almost too much to withstand For in a love so consuming That it is laden in every breath Forced to live so separately Is a torment worse than death For at least in death can be found Heaven Or if we're guilty, can be found Hell But even hell, if I am with you, Can be called Heaven very well

Ill-Fated
Would you think me insane If I were to tell you that you have set me free That knowing you has taught me About who I am meant to be? Something I thought long since dead Deep inside myself Was awakened when you looked at me Like there was no one else A renewed sense of who I am Invigorates the soul I now believe in fairy tales And love I do extol It is not a passing breeze of caring More like a hurricane-force wind That knocks you over and lifts you up Like you're flying from within Two hearts connected silently Across a million miles Melancholy fades away With just the memory of a smile How can it be that circumstance Deals such a cruel, cruel hand To temper fated torture Almost too much to withstand For in a love so consuming That it is laden in every breath Forced to live so separately Is a torment worse than death For at least in death can be found Heaven Or if we're guilty, can be found Hell But even hell, if I am with you, Can be called Heaven very well
