Over The Valleys

The moon was asking to be remembered yesterday. That’s how I got fooled and asked to meet you again. So in this world full of strangers could I dare to admit I miss you?
But bitterness came back to remind me not to forget.

I will not run after you. Because I never wanted to have you. I never asked to know you. Although I dreamt to explore you.

The hurt poet puts on his pride and walks away from the illogical scenery of absence. And he believes it all makes sense in a funny way, so he sings a little thought he had:
‘But don’t we all look for the exit in the labyrinth of our soul?’

Over the valleys I try to get away from the moments that hunt me. I want to find myself.

As I’m taking the usual road back to reality I’m sure I have not quite solved this mystery yet. I know I’ll be back in my imaginary shadow that lays a veil and covers me from the world.

I will not look for you. Because I never wanted to have you. I never asked to know you. Although I dreamt to explore you.

The wounded poet wears his ironic mask and laughs at the still painful past that made him realise honesty and sarcasm like to play together, so he sings a little thought he had:
‘But don’t we all look for the exit in the labyrinth of our soul?’

Over the valleys I die and I’m born again. I need to find myself.

Over the valleys I die and I’m born again.
And I’ll have seen all that had to be seen
And I’ll have done all that had to be done.

The sad poet will try to trap another unfulfilled love in his magical web of dreams.
But before I attempt to convert you into a memory, could I ask to see you again?
I’d tell you a story of a little thought I had:
‘You look for the exit in the labyrinth of your soul’.

Over the valleys I die and I’m born again.
I need to find myself.
