Open Heart
I'm an old man, might turn ninety eight
without candles and without cake
since my memories are floaded with tears
i'm counting years and years
But still i remain to be picked
from a dark man in a blood-soaked cape
While i wait for my time
I keep a promise in my mind
Where ever you go I will follow you behind
You're the open heart stranded on mine
Sometimes i find you in my sleep
but i try our eyes not to meet
you are there and i am still here
oh how i wish to be near you
The days are still passing by
and there is no end in sight
While i wait for my time
I keep a promise in my mind
Where ever you go I will follow you behind
You're the open heart stranded on mine
That night I kneeld at your bed
I stayed all night as you asked
you took away all my glory and pride
the moment your fire died out
My promise came late but in time
soon i will follow you behind
While i wait for my time
I keep my promise in my mind
Where ever you go I will follow you behind
you're the open heart stranded on mine
