"The Longing" lyrics

You were always so much stronger
You reached for the stars and became one
You are the purest of all rivers
I became the moon, you lived like the sun
Will I ever, ever feel your warmth again?

So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing for the past burns our souls
So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing, oh this longing burns our souls

I'm bearing this burning old soul
With my eyes and skin so cold
Still hiding with it in the night
This is the splinter under my nail

There's no shallow, there's no bridge
I became the moon, you lived like the sun
Will I ever, ever feel your warmth again?

So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing for the past burns our souls
So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing, oh this longing burns our souls

With every step that I take
And every line that I write
And every breath that I waste
And every war that I fight

With every step that I take
And every line that I write
And every breath that I waste
And every war that I fight

I won't give up on you
I won't give up on me

With every step that I take
And every breath that I waste

I won't give up on you
I won't give up on me

So you think time heals everything
So you think time heals everything

So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing for the past burns our souls
So you think time heals everything
Not daring to forget these feelings of regret
This longing, oh this longing burns our souls
