Lyrics:

Can I see the light, as promised, engraved inside me
While my eyes shut, my heartbeat increased
I think of you, a goddess, whenever I want to be released


That perfect future cannot be outside my reach
After all I’ve done to witness again that bright blue heaven
Cutting away the shadows of my former self, let’s move onward, live and learn
And pass the point of no return
But the memories, they weigh down my heart, and the clock tells me: once more, I’m back at start
So, when midnight strikes, I will begin anew
To fulfill my task of looking after you

If you were to ask: ‘What is it, deep down inside your heart, you’re wishing, just one little thing?’
I would reply: ‘Be able to see just what the future will bring’
Gazing at the sky above us we will laugh once again, I promise
That image will be my light
I have never looked away, and never will

When I was gloomy, hurting, saddened, in distress
‘Twas my friends who’d come to me and would try to make it hurt less
But like by witchcraft every one of them is gone
In this dark, distorted world I want to reach the eye of the storm
Our joy and pain won’t be erased by fate, they are just waiting for you to incubate
When our love is strong, when our voice reaches out
Then a miracle will burst and yell devout:

‘Can you see the light, as promised, it cannot fade a-
-way, your sorrows have all been received
It’s up to me, a goddess, to ease the pain and have it relieved
So whichever wall you’re facing, bestow it upon me
I’ll listen, your misery shall be mine
If you’ve ever lost your way, we will connect’

So the burden’s disappeared and we should be isolated
Utopia it may be, but where’s the harmony…?

If you were to ask: ‘What is it, deep down inside your heart, you’re wishing, just one little thing?’
I would reply: ‘Be able to hear just what the goddess would sing’
Gazing at the sky above me I promise you won’t be forgotten
Your image will be my light
So wherever you might be, I’ll set you free
Tomorrow should be yours
