Lyrics
After a dream I had one of these dreadful days
Reflecting on a difficult day that followed a dream.
I have defined I must confess to you as I wait
Admitting a defined feeling while waiting.
For through the brittle ghostly strings that keep my fate
Feeling constrained by uncertain and fragile threads of destiny.
I have been told I'm close to fade away
Being warned of the proximity to fading away.
I must confess I was afraid to watch your eyes
Expressing fear of encountering the intensity in your eyes.
To touch your hands and feel your sacred lips with mine
Fearing the consequences of physical closeness and vulnerability.
Because I knew I had to face the sharpest blade
Acknowledging the necessity to confront painful truths.
And have a wound of love in me
Expecting to bear the emotional wounds of love.
And it was true, you gave me light
Affirming the positive impact of the person, but acknowledging their own fragility.
A light too bright for a fragile heart like mine
Describing the overwhelming brightness of the love received.
A light that was much more than I deserved
Feeling unworthy of the intense love experienced.
And I was right, and then you left
Recognizing the correctness of anticipating separation.
I must confess I still remember each caress
Recalling and cherishing past moments of physical contact.
And I just know I'll never reach you once again
Expressing the impossibility of rekindling the connection.
I must confess I still love you against all odds
Admitting persistent love against unfavorable circumstances.
But I already lost it all
Conveying the realization of having lost everything.
I must confess I was afraid to watch your eyes
Reiterating the fear of facing the intensity in the other person.
To touch your hands and feel your sacred lips with mine
Acknowledging the apprehension of physical and emotional closeness.
Because I knew I had to face the sharpest blade
Recognizing the necessity to confront painful realities again.
And have a wound of love in me
Expressing the acceptance of a lasting wound from the experience of love.
And it was true, you gave me light
Reaffirming the impact of the received love, emphasizing its intensity.
A light too bright for a fragile heart like mine
Describing the received love as exceeding what was deserved.
A light that was much more than I deserved
Feeling justified in anticipating the departure of the loved one.
And I was right, and then you left
Acknowledging the correctness of the expectation as the loved one departs.
