This Side of the Looking Glass (Alternate Take) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The stars in the heavens still shine up above me:
How lovely they'd seem if you were with me
But you're gone through the looking-glass
And I am left to pass these nights alone

[Verse 2]
I'm lost, I'm dumb, I'm blind
I am drunk with sadness
Sunk by madness
The wave overwhelms me
The mirror repels me
The echo of your laugh
Drifts through the looking-glass
And I am alone

[Chorus 1]
No friendship, no comfort, no future, no home
The past lingers with me:
You're all the lovе I've ever known
Without you I'm nothing
But еmpty and silent
Reflecting on all that I've lost
I let you slip away so very soon

[Bridge]
Can you hear me? This is my song:
I am dying and you are gone

[Verse 3]
These words are not enough to save my soul
They just mock me from the mirror
I'm cold and I'm yearning
I've told you I'm burning
My eyes can't stand the light...
Like a stray dog in the night
I'll shuffle off alone

[Chorus 2]
We all make our futures
But I have lost mine;
I'm hoping for a miracle
But finding no sign...

[Outro]
The stars in their constellations
Each one just sadly flickers and falls...
Without you they mean nothing at all
