English romantic piano-ballad direction · male narration and female harmony
A remembered face first lives in dreams, then is scattered by years and change. When the familiar figure returns, poetry, tears and love return too. The dark, confined life is a lyric setting, not evidence of a real imprisonment or a named biographical subject.
The romantic-ballad direction opens and pauses with solo piano. Male narration gives way to female pre-chorus and harmony, while a whispered bridge shares lines between them. Follow the movement from absence to renewed love and the room a duet can leave around reunion.
Read the lyrics
[Intro - soft piano solo]
[Verse 1 - Male]
I remember that wondrous moment
when you appeared before my eyes
like a vision gone in a moment
like an angel of the purest beauty
In the torment of a hopeless sorrow
in the noise of a vain and restless living
for a long time your gentle voice was in my ear
and in my dreams I saw your dear and lovely face
[Verse 2 - Male]
The slow years went by, one after another
and a storm of violent change
scattered the dreams that I used to keep
so I forgot the softness of your voice
and your face that was an angel's face
In that far poor country, in that dark and prisoned life
my days went by in silence, one by one
no one to love at all, no breath of poetry
without a tear, without a life
and without any love
[Pre-Chorus - Female]
In that far poor country
in that dark and prisoned place
no one to love at all, no breath of poetry
without a tear, without a life
and without any love
[Chorus - Male lead, Female harmony]
And now my soul has begun to wake again
and here before me once again, you stand
like a vision gone in a moment
like an angel of the purest beauty
My heart is beating in a wild delight
and everything inside it wakes again
someone to love again, the breath of poetry
a life again, and tears again
and love again at last
[Instrumental - piano interlude]
[Verse 3 - Male]
I remember that wondrous moment
when you appeared before my eyes
like dawn walking out of that dark far country
like eyes lit up inside a prisoned life
[Bridge - whisper duet]
(Male) In the torment of a hopeless sorrow
(Female) in the noise of a vain and restless living
(Male) for a long time your gentle voice was in my ear
(Female) in my dreams I saw your dear and lovely face
(Together) and now my soul has begun to wake again
and here before me once again, you stand
[Final Chorus]
My heart is beating in a wild delight
and everything inside it wakes again
someone to love again, the breath of poetry
a life again, and tears again
and love again at last
[Outro - piano solo, fading]
I remember that wondrous moment
when you appeared before my eyes
