Only One

You see the one you love most of all people dying and you can’t stop it, can’t bear it.

That’s the subject of this song, beautifully sad.

Check out the album version of the song!

I can’t say goodbye
I can’t see you die
You are my only one
You are my holy sun

Don’t give your life away
You know it’s not okay
Don’t leave me here alone
You’ll take away my home

Where do you go?
Your journey leads you far away
I feel the snow
My heart is begging you to stay

Why would you smile at me?
Offer a cup of tea
I don’t deserve your love
Your angel all above

How can I get a grip
How can I end this trip
How can I be with you
Without the pain come through

Where do you go?
Your journey leads you far away
I feel the snow
My heart is begging you to stay

Why are we born, why do we die
Why don’t we learn to say goodbye
Is there an end to all the pain?
Was all our caring love in vain?
You look at me for one last time
Your loving eyes with magic shine!

Now that you’re gone
I am all alone
Look at my empty plate
Without the meal you’d made

Remember all the times
You’ve read between the lines
Now I must read myself
And care for my own health

Where did you go?
Your journey led you far away
I feel you show
my heart to breathe alone today

Where do I go?
My journey leaves me without you
I feel your glow
Is slowly breaking through to me
