There was a time
Dark and divine
Exciting and new.
Shameful and true
Free to explore,
We had it all:
Towering trust,
Insatiable lust
Clouding the truth

Both of us knew:
This sordid affair
Is ending in tears
Yes, we would go on,
Knowing the wrong.
Until the day,
It was taken away
Oh, all our love
Fell down
To earth
Here, broken and cold
With grave remorse

But for a while
It all made sense…
It might have been just a dark pretense,
But you had me…
And I loved it…
To be with you,
To be the one,
To live a lie,
It really got me all excited…
I felt wanted…

Then in the night,
The sorrow inside,
Was taken away,
Deliverance came
Fell from the sky,
Heaven replied…
Salvation in streams,
Silent and clean
All that we were,
All that we knew,
Faded away,
With tears in the rain

Yes, all that we were,
All that we knew
Is fading away,
Like tears in the rain
All that we were,
All that we knew
Fading away
All that we were,
All that we knew
Fading away
