I reach for you like I’d reach for a star,
Worshipping you from afar, living with my silent love.
I’m like a flame dying out in the rain,
Only the ashes remain, smould’ring like my silent love.

How I long to tell all the things I have planned.
Still, it’s wrong to tell, you would not understand.
You’ll go along never dreaming I care,
Loving somebody somewhere, leaving me my silent love.
