Sitting alone in the twilight of your room

With your face staring at the wall

Playing with reminders of yesteryear

Persona that hasn't got a place at all

Your were in love with the caress of a camara

And I was in love with you

Now the mirrors' dimmed and cracked

Like your aura and your glammer

Make the legend

Easier to live through



And I once loved a smile

And I once dreamed a look

I collected your memories too

Now the eyes hold the flame

And the face holds the pain

As you try to live your legend through



And I once loved a smile

And I once dreamed a look

I collected your memories too

Now the eyes hold the flame

And the face holds the pain

As you try to live your legend through



It's so sad you never gave in smiling

Aging to an art

Wishing we could grow together

When we only grow apart



It's so sad you never gave in smiling

Aging to an art

Wishing we could grow together

When we only grow apart



Life behind the shades is a life all in the mind

With no place in the living at all

You die with the dreams and so it seems

With imagination's down fall

Keep up the whispers

Incite the adoration

That glows around the image of you

With a kiss to the screen

As you play out the scene

As you try to live your legend through



And I once loved a smile

And I once dreamed a look

I collected your memories too

Now the eyes hold the flame

And the face holds the pain

As you try to live your legend through



And I once loved a smile

And I once dreamed a look

I collected your memories too

Now the eyes hold the flame

And the face holds the pain

As you try to live your legend through



It's so sad you never gave in smiling

Aging to an art

Wishing we could grow together

When we only grow apart



It's so sad you never gave in smiling

Aging to an art

Wishing we could grow together

When we only grow apart



And I once loved a smile

And I once dreamed a look

I collected your memories too

Now the eyes hold the flame

And the face holds the pain

As you try to live your legend through
