MIRROR OF TIME
(words & music by Francesca Ortolani)
(c)(p) 2022 Francesca Ortolani
I'd take a leap and cross the fence
I'd come to see that it was all a nightmare,
wake up one year later
wake up and see that spring has come
I know this track has come to an end
and damnation will last forever
at least it will be some company
and it will burn my heart
I saw them, walking in the street
grey hair in a braid and dressed like the trees
two people I know, many years later
like two sounds in a chord, in a harmony, eternal
Now I know, in the mirror of time,
our story will last forever
I'd take a leap and cross the fence
I'd come to see that these tears on my face
are just rain in the morning
just rain and the grass is green
I know this track has come to an end
and darkness will last forever
I've planted a shrub to hide a ray of light
so peace can bloom back to life
I saw them, walking in the street
grey hair in a braid and dressed like the trees
two people I know, many years later
like two sounds in a chord, in a harmony, eternal
Now I know, in the mirror of time,
our story will last forever
And I would like to die so that all will be silent
and I would like to live to see the Sun come back
The rumble of a thousand guitars
The echoes of our battles run
still resonate around us
still resonate in the mirror of time
