Temporary Borders Lyrics


Whispered words beneath the floating autumn leaves 
Flying softly on the
southern breeze 
Fragments of light between the branches and trees 
I
wish I would stay here forever 

The sun is sinking behind mountains of
old 
Brushing faintly clouds of red and gold 

Night-time's flinging a
vast veil of velvet across fields and forest 
Trespassing the havens of
daylight's temporary borders. 
I knew my game could gain me but grief, the
fairy tale was on though brief 
Trespassing the havens of secrecy's
temporary borders. 

Scratching the surface of times seemingly forgotten

Of you who once were mine betrothen 
Digging 'neath layers of emotions
now rotten 
I feel myself slip away 
Nostalgic entertainment tingled by
the past 
You were the one to be mine at last 
But now my memory's ever
fading so fast 
Keeping emotions at bay 

Here I sit, and memories
unfold 
My feelings are hollow, I'm feeling so old 

(Female) 
"I
feel it fade away and cry tears in solitude" 
Trespassing the havens of
night-time's temporary borders 
As shadows collapse in the mating of day and
night, crows are circling in ominous flight 
Trespassing the havens of my own
temporary borders (temporary borders) 

(Solo) 

I tried. I tried
hard to believe 
Thinking of us has left me but grief 
I cannot look
ahead, the past is all I see 
Moments together, but time's a thief


Shadows recurring from times long since passed 
Our time and now in
a perfect contrast 

(Female) 
"As I see you sitting by my grave 
I
feel your presence, but can't say a word 
Your heart and love, patient and
brave 
But my soul is too late for you to save" 

I am probably a fool
still thinking of you 
Night after night. 
There's not much else I can do

For neither myself nor you 
Maybe I should leave and never come back to
this place. 
But I know too surely that I'm only fooling myself 
I'm only
fooling myself
