Beautiful sunset
your melancholy frightens me
you speak so many words with silence
you mark the ending of light and a new beginning of darkness

Summer has come but I part to winter
leaving everything behind
carrying only memories within my mind
my heart is weak and strenght is but a fragile mask

Your departure covers the world in shadows
while at the same time sprays the skies with silver stars
but oh, they are so far
how can I escape the shadows within my heart?

How can I feel them near, when they are so far?
can distance really tear us apart?
can time and space dominate my reality
or is life stronger than a vague concept of minutes flowing by?

Beautiful sunset
don't let daylight part
or beautiful sunset
only leave with the promise of dawn in my heart
