I can smell you on my fingers,
I can feel you on my skin,
But where are you going?
And where have you been?
Do you still think of me?
Do you still cry?
Or like candlelight
Did your love flicker and die?
Though my candle still burns,
I’m filled with a chill
The cold shadow cast
It reaches me still.
The flame won’t go out
Though I try all in vain,
I fear not to be freed
Of its shadow again.
Now my head is hexed,
And my heart is screaming,
And shall be as long
As you haunt my dreaming.
So cover your ears,
Shut out the sound.
But how long will I fall before I hit the ground?
