Scales of love

And I don't really know if I am still your love You have grown so strong, tough as steel from now on But I don't feel my own sorrow in your face, it's gone I used to dream of a woman made of crystal and grace Who would need me like a lighthouse in a stormy place We are day and night, two shores of the same stream So close and yet so far, separated from the dream I talk about building a nest, mending what we had You dream of a house by the ocean, far and sad I am looking for a strict line, a bitter elegance For you, nothing matters more than a light, carefree dance Twenty years have already vanished like smoke I don't want to be useful, I want love unbroke We reach for each other through ages, through time But where has love gone, blown away from our climb? Leaving behind only bitterness, everyday fights Let’s look for another way, flee these miserable nights The one that stops us from running to the edge of the fall Where everyone will leave alone, broken by the call I am at peace when everything is in its right place But you are a romantic, believing in miracles and grace An adventurer at heart, loving dust and the long road I am the scales, looking for calm, easing the load What should I put on your trembling plate, tell me now To make us equal again, on the same bench somehow? I know that for others, the worst is everyday life But that is not a comfort, you know, in our strife It doesn't warm my heart, it brings no peace to my mind I want to be with you alone, leaving the past behind Twenty years have already vanished like smoke I don't want to be useful, I want love unbroke We reach for each other through ages, through time But where has love gone, blown away from our climb? Leaving behind only bitterness, everyday fights Let’s look for another way, flee these miserable nights The one that stops us from running to the edge of the fall Where everyone will leave alone, broken by the call And yet we will stay here, together on the shore It's sweeter together, in summer and when storms roar We will see the dawns rising again in the skies And we will smile at the sun with no more goodbyes Thinking that our life wasn't in vain under the sun Where our new dawn awakens, and we are finally one
