lyrics

The coal gives me a piece of you
A piece of me needs this certainty
But your face on the faded paper
Black and white, just black and white
It's a pale portrait of you I drew
While you were looking at the docks
I thought the metro was the right place to rest
But too soon you got out and left

The lines I draw resemble perfection
The beauty I desire, you are perfection
It has stolen my affection, became an addiction
Enriched imagination, turned in desperation

The crooked shapes become a whole
Starting over and over again
Every piece of work a piece of gold
A treasure in my sacred land
Thousands of portraits of you I've drawn
All of them without a flaw
Every picture is full of perfect memories
Of you and me in harmony

When I wake tomorrow will you be there?
To take all those sorrows and my despair

When I wake tomorrow you won't be here
I've been chasing your shadow
Now even this disappeared
