Songtexte: Renaissance. Novella. Touching Once (Is So Hard to Keep).

Leaving all their thoughts behind
Passing over timeless wastes of ecstasy
Freedom strangled at the source
Takes the only charted course that leads them home

Their bodies move towards the dawn
The light in which a nation born
Can only hope, and only weep
Their passion may be growing weak

How was alone
Recall me if you can
I feel I am lost within you
Many times within the sound of emptiness

A light has shown deep in each others soul
Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole
Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams
Made life and living a faded scene

To give a name locked in despair
Chances of a lifetime course across your eyes
Give and get, and yet return
Emotion smoulders, starts to burn in harmony

They lay within a ruined shell
Searching for the time to tell
He who followed endlessly
Does not exist, can never be

How was alone
Recall me if you can
I feel I have lost within you
A part of what is held inside a deep regret

Taking over all that a hearts request
Answered by cries from a wilderness
Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep
Touching once is so hard to keep

In emptiness, a light has shown deep in each others soul
Keeps them apart, a love now makes them whole
Fractured memories tearing at all their dreams
Made life and living a faded scene

Taking over all that a hearts request
Answered by cries from a wilderness
Found forgotten lying in deeper sleep
Touching once is so hard to keep
