The Longing

Under the veil of secrecy
Never realising what you mean to me

Time after time, it's always the same
Another sleepless night ahead
Watching from a distance, adoring from afar
Trapped in eternal sorrow, wishing on a star

Time after time, it's always the same
When will you see me? Why can't you see me?
When will you hear me? Why can't you hear me?

I'm calling out your name, screaming at the sky
Longing so for you, burning from inside
Look into my eyes, then you will see why
The longing never ends, my love will never die

When will I be free?
So many centuries passed by
There is nothing more I can do
I've followed you through time

I will forever stay two steps behind
How many lifetimes tortured for my crime?

Time after time, it's always the same
Will you ever know my name?

Watching from a distance,adoring from afar
Trapped in eternal sorrow, wishing on a star
