You whispering promises in the dark
Holding me in your warm embrace
Kissing me on my lips so sweet
Singing love songs in starlit nights

Then a pitiless guillitine torn us apart
Still we tried to stay as one
Holding on with our weakened love
Finally ripped apart by the shocking touch

'Til now I still remember
All the promises I'll never see
I still love you with all my heart
Although our love's not meant to be
