Open your eyes, this is a ballad without the reprise
An old wisdom lurking without the disguise
Wake you up now 'cause it was just a dream
You were sleeping my dear
Fighting your way through your love and your fears
And everything that's in between

Don’t tell me now, that lovers are meant to resist love somehow
That goodbye’s the letter we’ll never compose
That fortune does favour the strong and the brave
I am neither of those
Some days I feel like I am just a slave
Clicking my fingers and tapping my toes
And wishing you were here

But don't tell me, my love
We never had the time
A rhythm without rhyme
But you’re the song that’s on my mind

And in my head I’m felling forests, I’m breaking down walls
Heart of the soldier but lacking the cause
A warrior’s will and a pen in my hand but no words in my head
Fooling around with my guitar instead
'Cause all I can think of is you
You, you, you
But don't tell me, my love
We never had the time
A rhythm without rhyme
But you’re the song that’s on my mind

But don't tell me, my love
We never had the time
A rhythm without rhyme
But you're the song that's on my mind
The song that's on my mind
The song that's on my mind
