V1 
Would you mind if I set fire 
To the time long acquired 
Dare the night and close my eyes 
To remind me where you hide 

CH 
When all of this is gone 
And I move on 
Could you have been the one 
To make me strong 

V2 
Slow it seems that you recede 
Steadily and less to keep 
Subtleties of memory 
In retreat they soon will flee 

CH 
When all of this is gone 
And I move on 
Could you have been the one 
To make me strong (2x) 


And I tried to chase you 
But I couldn’t find the place you fled 
I tried to catch you 
But there were frays that broke my net 
If I could face you 
I’d put your hand into my chest 
You’d be mistaken 
To think that anything was left 
Left, left, left, left 

CH 
When all of this is gone 
And I move on 
Could you have been the one 
To make me strong (2x)
