Tristesse Lyrics

Tristesse lyrics

If I say I love you 

will you stay or want ot wither, fade away 

If I show you the sun and the night of my past 

will a smile cross your face but just vanish too fast 



In the greener field she lies 

the superior being with emerald eyes 

Red strand of hair and straw entwined 

She's surrounded by utopia 

but unable to find 



A reason to keep those flaming eyes burning 

for darkness blurs her yearning 

She feels the tides have stopped their turning 

and beauty only lives in death 



I hear you singing in my dreams 

awaken to your silent screams 

I see you dancing on the line 

of sorrow versus joy divine 



In the greener field she lies 

the superior being with emerald eyes 

Red strand of hair and straw entwined 

She's surrounded by utopia 

but unable to find 



A reason to keep those flaming eyes burning 

for darkness blurs her yearning 

She feels the tides have stopped their turning 

and beauty only lives in death
