another text for Karsten (2)

I had to listen to Karsten's Midi file about one hundred times to get the intonation right (well, maybe I only listened 10 or 20 times). The stresses in certain lines of text just would not match. In the end I managed to stick to my original ideas by just re-formulating a couple of expressions. Not to bad, is it? One line still doesn't fit 100%, but Karsten likes it and wants to keep it: "I am left with the void, left alone with my unheard cries". I would not want to have to sing it. Anyway ...

Verse

I still don't know what I've done wrong
what was causing you to get cross with me
how come that we cannot get along
I've no clue, give some hint, so I can stop wondering

Chorus

why do you treat me like this
you are breaking my heart
what did I do, what went amiss
what's driving us apart


Verse
gone are the times when we'd hold hands
when I would spot stars sparkle in your eyes
the time that our love would know no end
now I'm left with the void, left alone with my unheard cries

Chorus

why do you treat me like this
you are breaking my heart
what did I do, what went amiss
what's driving us apart

Bridge

instead of reaching for the skies
I am left with the void, left alone with my unheard cries

Chorus

why do you treat me like this
you are breaking my heart
what did I do, what went amiss
what's driving us apart

why do you treat me like this
you are breaking my heart
why did we leave our isle of bliss
our love's fallen apart
