I stood against the nights and passing days,
And offered you the finest years of my life.
Even if you remain only a dream among dreams,
You will stay the most beautiful girl in my memories.
One single chance brought me to you,
See how strange coincidences can be.
We met within one cityβs embrace,
Yet a thousand ports stood between you and me.
Forgive the wind, the waves, the ship at sea,
For the journey itself was sorrowβs decree.
I see you, and I beg my eyelids not to close,
I fear a single blink might make you go.
I do not want my eyes to lose your sight,
Not even for the breath of a momentβs flight.
If I had known that time would lead me to you,
I wouldβve carried my past and walked it through.
Iβd gather my years, my wounds, my days,
And come to you through every maze.
I wish every road would lead to you,
And time would pause when Iβm near your view.
Iβd walk the world with no fear or doubt,
If every step just brought me about.
In my memories, I find a life,
Where my soul still learns to survive.
I breathe the past when now feels tight,
And live where loss still feels like light.
Come closer, let us stay beneath the moonlight,
And if the moon abandons our sky tonight,
I will remain awake within your glow,
For you are the light I choose to know.
I waited for your return, but waiting brought no relief,
Time stretches on, and my patience slowly bleeds.
I am not well with absence, with this distance between us,
Even my own soul no longer knows the state Iβm in.
Between Edinburghβs streets and its gentle rain,
we walked, and he alone filled all my thoughts.
I do not know if our meeting was dream or illusion,
but I know for certainβit was the finest fate I was given.
