"The Cruellest Goodbye" lyrics
(feat. Al Di Meola)
Two souls once connected
So close but apart
A dream has been wasted
Worship, blinded
The promise is broken
By hallowed beliefs
Restrained by devotion
Vicious madness
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
The words are all useless
They're screaming in vein
Remember the first kiss
Vanished, wiped out
Sacred, sadness
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
Fear is dividing
Courage is hiding
Where did it get lost?
Who wrote the rules killed the love
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
So close but apart
A dream has been wasted
Worship, blinded
The promise is broken
By hallowed beliefs
Restrained by devotion
Vicious madness
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
The words are all useless
They're screaming in vein
Remember the first kiss
Vanished, wiped out
Sacred, sadness
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
Fear is dividing
Courage is hiding
Where did it get lost?
Who wrote the rules killed the love
How can they let it all go
Even knowing
And while they're losing control
The distance growing
Too weak to decide
The roses will die
It's the cruelest goodbye
