Gmi Dmi Once my life was plain and clearGmi I recallDmi Once my ignorance was blissGmi Dmi Ami Nightfall cameC Gmi Like a serpent’s kissEs F Gmi To my troubled mindCmi Gmi Why... Oh why my GodAs Cmi Gmi Have you abandoned me in my sobrietyAs Cmi Gmi Behind the old façadeAs As Fmi I'm your bewildered childGmi Cmi So take me cross the river wide Binding promisses 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 façade I'm your bewildered child So take me cross the river wide 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 façade I'm your bewildered child So take me cross the river wide
