The world stopped A raindrop fell over your cheek As winds off shore caressed your hair I knew the mastery of pain Like the cold snow shelters the evergreen leaves Just before the sun takes it away So our time won't last for evermore But don't fear the night The essence never dies Don't you see that our love is real In your eyes, beyond this life Don't you see that this love is real In your eyes, it will never die I wish this could be true The mastery of pain Inside The essence never dies Deep inside The essence never dies Please don't give me more thoughts pure I don't want anything but you Please don't leave this world of doom I can't live without your voice You're a fire in the sky I will crush heavens to dust 'Cause I need your love - I need you I need you to be free - I need you Don't you see that our love is real In your eyes, beyond this life Don't you see that this love is real In your eyes, it will never die Inside The essence never dies Inside The essence never dies I wish this could be true... (The path of joy is the mastery of pain)
