Select language to translate this lyric
Up on the hill lies an old broken house
Memories built, frozen by someone else
I can sense you're still there, there waiting
A ghost roams the land
Shedding tears across the grass
The blades grow with sadness and flowers never last
They're wilting away and die waiting
You sense there's danger for the butterfly
Oh my love, if only you'd come and take me
Paint me with life and bail me out of this plight
Cause I'm still here waiting for you
I close my eyes and I can see you
A suitcase is packed
But there's nowhere to belong
Always a minute
Til she's coming home
But she never appears
And I'm fading away
If you lift the curse,
And somehow you returned
I know if you stay
There'll be no danger for the butterfly
Oh my love if only you'd come and take me
Paint me with life and save me from this endless night
Cause I'm still here waiting for you
There's never a door I can go through
I hold on to you
I am fading out
Feels like I'm fading out
Out of reach, fading out
