I admire you (extended)

[Lyrics by A. Berkuljan © 2024, version in English language] [Instrumentalni intro] [1] Always I admire you, My love, my treasure, I blame myself for losing you, For this pain beyond measure. Beneath the gray, cold sky, I burn and fade away, Like a candle’s fragile flame, Melting slow, day by day. [Chorus] The endless trace of time Wraps me in its icy embrace, Squeezing my heart so tight, In a dream with no escape. [Long instrumental interlude] [2] The memory of you Is my only strength, But sorrow tears it apart, And drags me far at length. It takes me far away From where our shelter stood, From all our fleeting joy, Now a faint and distant mood. [Chorus] The endless trace of time Wraps me in its icy embrace, Squeezing my heart so tight, In a dream with no escape. [Long instrumental interlude] [3] The dawn feels like the dusk, The day is but a shade, Each moment repeats the past, In a cycle that won’t fade. As a cold wind howls above, It chills my fragile soul, And a weeping cloud sheds tears, For the love time could not hold. [Chorus] The endless trace of time Wraps me in its icy embrace, Squeezing my heart so tight, In a dream with no escape. [Instrumental finale] [Instrumental end, fading]
