For she who in my dreams reveals how she longs and she cares

The woollen jacket from a time when the Lord still answered my prayers 
                     C#m 
I let fall my black armour

I give her my ears and my eyes

I give her my future and my past 
                                    C#m 
They´re both full of questions and lies 
                A                    E   Esus4 E Esus4

Wild berries stain the fragile dress she wears

I give her my future and my past 
                                    C#m 
They´re both full of questions and lies 
                A                    E   Esus4 E Esus4 
But I`ve got a feeling she´ll never ask
