How much time has passed us by?
Has it been that long since our last goodbye?
Would you believe that on our street
That subway station is now complete?

Back then, the noise would wake us up with a start
Hammering and shouting all morning long...
We heard the calling of our hearts
And we'd run to our secret place where we'd breathlessly sing our song

Do you remember when we met on that freezing starry night?
We thought it'd never melt, this glinting light
You took my freezing hand and laughed despite the cold
But you, alone, flew into the sky
Your light burned brightly like a firefly
And melted with the snow

And all at once, the stars disappear
Into the west as dawn's rays appear
They break the night with their brilliant length
Giving birth to a dazzling strength

And it seems so strange that I was once so scared
The sun's cruel light caught me so unprepared
Although it's such a small relief
That my heart grows stronger everyday, I'll never stop feeling grief

When I placed that lonely flower upon your pale cold cheek
I felt so lost, I couldn't speak
All alone, I began to cry as friends parted with last goodbyes
Silence was your sole reply
A light of peace blooms upon the ocean of your soul and flies

I remember exactly how we met, it was on a night so cold
It seemed it'd never melt, the endless snow
You took my freezing hand and by my side, you stayed
But where you are now, I could never go
Just like a firefly, your light burns brightly
Then it fades away...
