I think that I can close my eyes now Because you’ve never wished me ill Despite your reassuring hand My lack of trust I can’t conceal I know that I should loosen my tongue now Because you can hear everything From the byways of betrayal To the red shame of disowning I’m slowly letting down The shortcuts I’ve been told I’ll follow you around Until the end of the road I feel that we must be on the look-out To seize the sly signs of desolation Your words of peace have sprouted inside me YOU Leading me to my own perfection Now that I lost myself in your arms My soul is yours without any reserve And every cloud has a silver lining Like obstacles from which we’ll never swerve I’m slowly letting down The shortcuts I’ve been told I’ll follow you around Until the end of the road They say the longest way is the hardest But mine takes shape as I go along
