LYRICS :

Again I cross the gates
Of the sorrowful garden
I shall keep its secrets
Lovestories gone forever...

Frozen figures of marble remind me of once was
Time forever dead and gone
Sleeping princess, I wept before thee and lost my mind
Gazing at your astral beauty...

Here comes the winter
Of my joyless life
My existence is over
In her arms, I dream I drown...
