So near, they are, to this heart's core,
So near, they are, to this heart's core,
If they depart, what then shall be?
If forced to live, apart from them,
If forced to live, apart from them,
What fate awaits, eternally?
So near, they are, to this heart's core.
To win their love, we'll bear the cost,
Each sacrifice, we'll gladly make,
To win their love, we'll bear the cost,
Each sacrifice, we'll gladly make,
But should these acts, their pride enhance,
But should these acts, their pride enhance,
What then, when hearts begin to break?
If forced to live, apart from them,
If forced to live, apart from them,
What fate awaits, eternally?
So near, they are, to this heart's core.
Dreams fragile, as a pane of glass,
The nights have woven, soft and deep,
Dreams fragile, as a pane of glass,
The nights have woven, soft and deep,
Should they shatter, on the day's harsh stones,
Should they shatter, on the day's harsh stones,
What then, when all our hopes will weep?
If forced to live, apart from them,
If forced to live, apart from them,
What fate awaits, eternally?
So near, they are, to this heart's core.
The world may scorn, and deem you wrong,
And its judgment shall not appease,
The world may scorn, and deem you wrong,
And its judgment shall not appease,
If your cruel acts on us are famed,
If your cruel acts on us are famed,
What then, when love begins to cease?
If forced to live, apart from them,
If forced to live, apart from them,
What fate awaits, eternally?
So near, they are, to this heart's core.
