[Verse 1]
Lips were smiling into velvet dark,
Stumbling, falling, laughing through the hazing.
Drinking brotherhood, we felt the spark,
Like the autumn leaves, we’re simply blazing.
Body cradled by the silt so deep,
Lonely candle starts to quiver.
I had loved you, love I meant to keep,
But you chose the rope, the stone, the flowing river.

[Chorus]
Cold is the water now, deep is the flow,
Where we were drowning once, you’re not my fault.
Love was falling down, no prayer and no cry,
Like the lowly whispers of the autumn sky.

[Verse 2]
Whispering a goodbye on the lips,
Step by step we crossed the final border.
Wet and heavy stone to ankle slips,
Eyes will lose their light in cold disorder.
Soon the snow will hide the tracks we made,
Pain is frozen in a silent answer.
I was watching as you joined the shade,
Fading like a ghost, a light-born dancer.

[Chorus]
Cold is the water now, deep is the flow,
Where we were drowning once, you’re not my fault.
Love was falling down, no prayer and no cry,
Like the lowly whispers of the autumn sky.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Lips were smiling into empty space,
No more tears and no more sad regretting.
No more spring we'll get in this dark place,
Autumn rain is all the grace I’m getting.
Wet remains of words you said at last,
Faintly echo, soul is fasting.
I had loved you while your shadow passed,
But you left: the rope, the stone, for ever-lasting.

[Chorus]
Cold is the water now, deep is the flow,
Where we were drowning once, you’re not my fault.
Love was falling down, no prayer and no cry,
Like the lowly whispers of the autumn sky.

[Outro]
Lips were smiling into empty air,
All the pain has finally dissolved now.
Fading glimmer in the wind's despair,
Memory accepts the part evolved now.
Quiet frost will make the leaves turn bright,
All that was before has turned to ashes.
In my eyes there is no burning light,
Free from void and fear in frozen flashes.
