lyrics

Once
When you are lost or when you are forlorn
Just call me and I will come to your door
Magic stone that can heal and ease your pain
I'll give it to your hands to end your bane
And when you leave your sweet childhood abode
You’ll come to search for me at a crossroads
Follow my footprints, they’ll lead you to me
When you get tired rest under a tree

So many springs and falls, you’d been on your own
Before you found me on a green wet moss by the road
I will end your anguish, now you won’t be alone
Come meet me, don't languish, I'll kiss you, do not moan

When the tears in your eyes have a bitter taste
They crush down on the ground with sudden haste
Turn around, you will see, there I will stand
Don't you cry, calm you down and give me your hand
And when your smile fades out from your crimson lips
Then you’ll feel trembling in your maiden fingertips
Write down our secrets in a letter to me
Write them down with charcoal so that no one can ever see

So many springs and falls...

One day when your horses are old and lame
We will cease playing this innocent game
Rings from our childhood, we’ll throw them (P!) into the pond
Thus we will break our everlasting bond
I’ll find you snuggled tight down on the ground
I’ll touch you tenderly, you know you can come around
Silently, lest I should break your calm sleep
You’ve been exhausted because of your endless weep

When you give birth to a child and I will not be there
Someone else will try to relieve your painful blare
You go away with him. Where to? You won't tell to me
You will live with him now, I won't know where you are

You’re not mine anymore, I must be brave and strong
It makes me cry, cause we were together for so long
I saw you growing up from a girl to a belle
This is our last goodbye, take care and fare thee well

When you get lost at the crossroads of life
Engrave my name to a stone with a sharp knife
I’ll find you, I’ll show you a new direction
In spite of our time-born disaffection
As soon as you forget all about me
I’ll repel memories and I will flee
Then I will lay a white stone on your grave
This is our last goodbye, need to be brave
