As I write these words I am up in the skies above
I am out of control and I just don't know how to love
I have tried many times, but my youth just seem to catch up with me
From a loving father who meant so well but shut down my dreams
He keeps on coming around

But you
Your spirit came out of the blue
Oh, you
My fate was as good as new

We could be a dream, we could be a sanctuary
For everlasting love, for complicated symphonies

Tell me you can see it through
The damage I did to you
Captain of pain is here for you too
For you

I remember the smell in the air when our paths once crossed
Verona, Catullo in a split of a second I'd lost
It was the sky in your eyes that just suddenly made me believe I'd win
Over a turbulent past and that clouded self-image I'd carried within
You keep on coming around

You, your spirit came out of the blue
Oh, you, my fate was as good as new
Oh, you something Zürich or Seoul couldn't do

We could be a dream, we could be a sanctuary
An everlasting love, a complicated symphony

Listen to my self-inflicted blues
There is nothing I can do to get to you
I have traveled far and wide you know
Seen your face a thousand times

Tell me you can see it through
The damage I did to you
Captain of pain is here for you too

Nothing was sacred until I saw you
A ghost of the seasons, a shadow of truth
Out of the silence, I'm under a spell
You are the reason I constantly dwell dwell dwell

Tell me you can see it through
Our sunrise was coming anew
Every delusion, every move

As I write these words I am up in the skies above
I am out of control and I just don't know how to love

You keep on coming around
