Pain Of Salvation – Second Love

We are eleven and she is the love of my life

But one week from now she will turn her back on me

Four years from now she will give me hope, then sleep with my best friend

Five years from now it is the two of us but by then there is nothing

left of this aching love amd this soaring love.

But I don’t know that now

Because we are eleven and she is the love of my life.”

Day after day

Nothing’s changed you’re far away

But I need you to know that I can’t sleep anymore

By the nights

Night after night

The stars are shining so bright

Though our pain is larger than the universe tonight

I want you to know I can’t sleep anymore

By the nights

By the nights

Day after day I want you to say

That you’re mine

You are mine

Year after year

Tear after tear

I feel like my heart will break in two

You came like a wind I couldn’t defend

You cut my heart so deeply

The scars won’t mend

I’ll never believe in love anymore

After this

After this

Can never change or rearrange

What we lost

What we lost

[Gildenlow]

Time after time

I am wasting my time

Living in a past where I was strong

But now I am gone

I leave no shadow when I’m alone

I’ll stay forever in my dreams where you are near

Want you to know I can’t sleep anymore

By the nights

By the nights

Day after day I want you to say

That you’re mine

You’re mine
