No creature more lovely, no spirit more dear to me,
And if I cannot hold you, I still wish you all the joy in the world,
How dark is the universe, how cold is the rain on this earth,
So long have I loved you; since I was a child and you were a girl.
What a terrible mystery,
How I searched for the key to unlock your guarded heart and set your love free,
What a beautiful dream,
I tried, more than anything, to unlock your heart and set your love free,
A terrible mystery.
It's alright, I'm moving on,
Some days the pain is gone,
No longer searching for the treasure in you I never could own,
I smile when I see you now,
This planet keeps turning around,
And I don't cry anymore...only once in awhile, when I am alone.
What a terrible mystery,
How I searched for the key to unlock your guarded heart and set your love free,
What a beautiful dream,
I tried, more than anything, to unlock your heart and set your love free,
A terrible mystery.
What a terrible mystery,
How I searched for the key to unlock your guarded heart and set your love free,
What a beautiful dream,
I tried, more than anything, to unlock your heart and set your love free,
A terrible mystery,
To unlock your heart and set your love free,
A beautiful mystery.
