A Dream That Cannot Be lyrics

[Him:]

Years of wait are over now,

she's almost in my grasp.

Now I will fulfill my vow.

She will be mine at last.

[Her:]

I feel him near. The boy estranged

has now returned a full-grown man.

But still, I fear that nothing's changed.

He simply does not understand.

[Him:]

Come with me.

I'll set you free

and I'll show you

what your life could be.

[Her:]

You can't see

that I am free.

My life is mine, not yours,

so leave me be.

[Him:]

Through forests deep, over mountains high,

I've crossed the waves for her.

In shadows dark this cursed night,

my thoughts and memories stir.

[Her:]

I've left the memories of our youth behind.

I don't know what he hopes to find.

In the shadows, he waits for me,

for a dream that cannot be.

[Him:]

Come with me.

I'll set you free

and I'll show you

what your life could be.

[Her:]

You can't see

that I am free.

My life is mine, not yours,

so leave me be.

[Him:]

She refuses to leave,

so I grab her by force.

[Her:]

I pull the knife I've concealed,

I put the edge to his throat.

[Him:]

Shocked by the attack,

I can feel her words sear:

[Her:]

Leave and never come back

or I'll cut you ear to ear!

[Her:]

You can't see

that I am free

My life is mine, not yours,

so leave me be.

[Both:]

"I'll set you free,"

he said to me,

"and I'll show you what your life could be."

"I am free,"

she said to me.

"My life is mine, not yours,

so leave me be!"

[Her:]

Can't you see?

Just leave me be!

Can't you see?

I am free!
