I promised myself
I won't meet you again.
I promised my eyes
I will cry only when it rains.
I promised my words
I'll utter them only in your absence
I promised myself
I'll no more sense your presence.

Dear, I walked a thousand miles
I shed a thousand tears
I failed a thousand times
And lived a thousand years
Only to call your name,
I captured your silhouette
And put it in a silver photo frame.

I have no desire to see you
No desire to bathe in winter dew
No desire to fly high up the air lane
Where
The cloud struck me with thunder
Instead of rain.

My dear, You don't know
About the blisters in my feet
Caused by walking alone
Along the infinite street.
You don't know how far I ran,
Ran from you
So far that you can't find me,
Not even in your memory...
Not even in a fake story...

But you are still here.
Here in my dreams,
In my nightmares,
My melancholy lullabies
And my morning prayers.

But I don't wanna see you again.
I don't wanna endure that pain.
But I'll call the clouds by your name,
I'll cry again when it will rain!
I'll cry again when it will rain!
