A stolen glance in the moonlight A subtle touch and I believe again Trying to feel our wary steps In the darkness that is sweet Like the red wine on your lips Just like the illusions that I'll miss When finally all this slips away...
Dreaming under torrid ruins The embers fade into the mist And I could scream but I must pretend The world hasn't changed And I'm the same
But I know the distance will slowly withdraw And dreams will fade away
Still the shadows of hurtful doubts Of they fill my sleepless nights...
Finally adrift in the shelter of dreams All I see is the deceitful eyes of love...
Still your lies are sweeter than any truth I've heard And so, for now, I don't even mind Dreaming under torrid ruins
