Film out – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
You, in my imagination
Are so vivid
As if you are right there
But I reach out my hand
And you suddenly disappear
From all the memories stored in my heart
I gather up the ones of you, link them together
Gazing at them projected across the room
I feel you with every burst of pain
La la la...
Decay too far gone absorbing no light or water
Sealing my wounded heart with a rootless, leafless vow
2 glasses placed side by side, their role
Never fulfilled, ah, just as they were
Since you last touched them
From all the memories stored in my heart
I gather up the ones of you, link them together
Gazing at them projected across the room
I feel you with every burst of pain
Don’t have to be right
Just wanted you to stay the way you are
Kind hearted, always smiling, but
If tears can be measured, it took this long but
I’ve barely made it by your side
and found you
From all the memories stored in my heart
I gather up the ones of you, link them together
Gazing at them projected across the room
I fall asleep with you vivid in my arms
The words you whisper, the resonance
Wander aimlessly around the room
The fragrance I smell, the warmth I feel
As long as it lasts, as long as it lasts
You, in my imagination
Are so vivid
As if you are right there
But I reach out my hand
And you suddenly disappear
