Story behind the song
Partly inspired by a beautiful book with the same name. Finally an attempt at composing something with lyrics on the piano :)
Lyrics
In her eyes he saw a dancing child Gliding with the colours and the beauty Of a butterfly Suddenly the memory subsides And tears fill her eyes Again In the dark she walked the winding road At the end he'd wait for her with open arms A dry rose Saved in the dusty pages of her soul With that heart shaped hole In the sky Oh Lord she cries Tell me who decides On the rules of who is to be loved In what way and how much In what way and how much Every night she would return To be touched by the untouchable The God of Loss Those parting words of "tomorrow" A promise not kept For long Oh Lord she cries Tell me who decides On the rules of who is to be loved In what way and how much In what way and how much
