I have gambled away my faith,
I can't keep on playing my game
'till someone will stop my pain...
Faith in love, I had for sure
there were you, and anything more
't was enough, all I could ask for
I've been burnin' for so many years,
it's not easy to put out a fire
by your own tears,
if they don't want to come out
from your dry eyes...
So, under the ashes,
part of me still burns
it's the memory of those hours
we were as one...
That's not you, not our story,
nor the places, nor a kiss...
I'm no more in love with you,
but when I'm alone,
my sensations free run, run,
and I feel it won't be easy
to build a new Eden to live in
For, when you've been a God,
it's hard to learn again to be a man.
