There was a time when I thought I saw your silhouette,
Coming yonder the barren hills,
My heart skipped a beat to think you’ve finally come back to me.
But as true as the sun rises each morning,
‘Twas not you I saw upon the hill,
But my imagination running wild,
And thus, I live everlasting in sorrow still.
You told me you would be back,
Centuries have passed.
I know you have forgotten your promise to me, my king.
You told me that after fighting the dragons,
You would return to your queen,
And we'd live out our happily ever after,
The way you saw in your dreams.
But I know now that you have forgotten about me, my king;
You no longer remember what you saw in your dreams.
I shall sit in wait,
Because my heart is true;
I am true to you, my king.
I shall wait here for an eternity until the sky darkens,
Until all of me vanishes with the wind;
Because when my heart is gone,
Only then will I no longer miss you, my king.
