[Intro]
How I wish it were only a dream
Even now I still dream of you
I brush the dust off from old memories
Like returning home to retrieve a forgotten item

[Verse 1]
In the end it was you who taught me that
Some happinesses can't be reclaimed
My dark, hidden past I dared not speak of
Without you, they would have remained forever dark

[Pre-Chorus]
I know there is no way I could ever hurt
More than I do now

[Chorus]
Even the sadness from that day, еven the pain from that day
I loved it all, togеther with you
The bitter scent of lemons remains embedded in my heart
Can't make my way home 'til the rain lets up
Even now you remain my light

[Verse 2]
In the darkness I traced the outlines of your back
I remember it's contour so clearly
Every time I encounter something that's all too overwhelming
It's the tears that won't stop overflowing
[Pre-Chorus]
What were you doing, what were you watching
Your face in profile, with a look I'd never seen

[Chorus]
If you are out there somewhere now
Lost in the same tears, the same loneliness as I
Please won't you just erase me from your memory
This I pray for from the bottom of my heart
Even now you remain my light

[Bridge]
More than I knew
I was in love with you
Since then I can't breathe easy
It seems so unreal
How you were always by my side back then
But I will never forget
That is the certain truth

[Chorus]
Even the sadness from that day, even the pain from that day
I loved it all, together with you
The bitter scent of lemons remains embedded in my heart
Can't make my way home 'til the rain lets up
Like a piece of sliced fruit
Even now you remain my light
