Swimming Home

it doesn't exist
but it will remain
a fervent mirage

it's just like a dream
in pursuit of light
raising its head
toward an unseen warmth

we were invisible
to all the days that passed
we would have looked so very beautiful in life
so wonderful in life, my dear

we were an unbreakable
blueprint in a frame
fragile as morning clouds
like dew on lotus leaves
like dew on lotus leaves, my dear

millions of stars
millions of suns
wake up without memories now

millions of stars
millions of suns
shed their salving light upon our secret world

the ghosts in the night
whisper our names
and we will live on in their dreams

we do not exist
but I will hold on
try to regain

we will set like the sun
and you don't even know my face
you and me, in hiding,
until we're swimming home

millions of stars
millions of suns
wake up without memories now

millions of stars
millions of suns
shed their salving light upon our secret world

the ghosts in the night
whisper our names
and we will live on in their jaded dreams
