[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
