If you decided to change your mind,
I'd drop everything,
Leave the girl I'm with for you,
True love though our lips never met,
You make me feel at one,
Let's lay in the sun,
If you decided to change your mind,
I'd drop everything.

You took me aside at the theatre,
We're meant to be rehearsing a play,
But then deep into my eyes you stared,
And my heart melted as i heard you say,
'I now find myself single and my heart is beating for you,
I feel like I'm falling in love - tell me, do you feel it too?'

My heart stopped and my breath was stolen,
I looked into your beautiful eyes,
Reached down and clasped your hand so tightly,
And then slowly i gave you my replies,
'I have wanted to hear you saying those words for far too long,
I feel like i'm falling in love - and this love is burning strong.'

The beast of night falls around me like a cloak,
It smothers me,
It covers me,
Surrounding me,
Dumbfounding me.

I sit alone and afraid,
I do not dare to move,
Any little motion,
Might give him the notion,
That i am in the frame of mind,
To be truly unkind,
And he'll strike.

Look at the silent candle glowing in the corner,
I stare deep into its orange flame,
I feel like a stranger in my house,
But everything is the same,
I'm still empty,
I'm still cold,
I'm living the story,
I never told.

Look at the silent candle burning in the shadows,
I gaze deep into its fading light,
I feel like a demon in this hell,
As i head into the night,
I'm so frightened,
I'm so hurt,
I'm rotting from inside,
Turning to dirt.

Bombs can fall,
Skies can tumble,
Earth can shatter,
Mountains tumble,
I won't care as long as you are here,
Here this year,
This fresh, crisp New Year,
Be here this year,
With me my dear,
Stay near,
Never fear,
My path you'll steer,
Unafraid in the headlights like a deer,
Never shed a tear,
Throughout this year,
Be with me,
Near with me,
My dear with me,
This New Year with me.
