Is love a wondrous mystery or is it a cruel joke?

Full of painful history did I burn it all in smoke

Love reveals it's depths when the ship is going down

My head is parched and starved for a cup I did not fill

And this will never heal sorrow confides in joy

But I'm listening still to the cries of a helpless boy

The boy becomes a man, a man who can stand on his own two feet

He has a heart that burns but a heart that won't melt

sleeping in the light awake in the darkness night

please don't worry darling I'm not going anywhere

but when you cast me away I will not try to fight the waves

this song I'll never sing this song it cries in vain

and I hope you feel every word you know where I am
