Abandoned

Once my life was plain and clear

I recall

Once my ignorance was bliss

Nightfall came

Like a serpent's kiss

To my troubled mind



Why oh why

My God

Have you abandoned me

In my sobriety

Behind the old facade

I'm your bewildered child

So take me cross the river wide



Binding promises were made

On my soul

Grand illusions lead astray

Ice cold winds swept my heart away

Bring me back to you



Why oh why

My God

Have you abandoned me

In my sobriety

Behind the old facade

I'm your bewildered child

So take me cross the river wide



[Helena]

I remember a song

Like in a dream

Where September was long

And winter unreal



Why oh why

My God above

Have you abandoned me

In my sobriety

Behind the old facade

I'm your bewildered child

So take me cross the river wide
