I reach for you like I'd reach for a star,
Worshipping you from afar,
Living with my silent love;

I'm like a flame dying out in the rain,
Only the ashes remain,
Smouldering like my silent love;

How I long to tell all the things I have planned,
Still it's wrong to tell, you would not understand,
You'll go along never dreaming I care,
Loving somebody somewhere,
Leaving me my silent love.
