A Cry in the Flames

You are the day, beautiful and bright I am the night, dark and full of fright You are magnificent, admired with grace I am a disgrace, a shadowed face I burn fiercely, weeping bitter tears Slowly fading, consumed by my fears But what’s the point of all my pain? When we’re forever apart, in vain I’ll keep burning, crying in despair As the flames of my love fill the air Until I’m reduced to ashes, gray By your love, lost in dreams, far away
