Emilie Autumn - Constant - Текст песни

You appeared to me 
Like rain 
After a dry spell 
Like growth 
After a hard year 
Like life 
After death 
And it had been so long 
Yet my eye could discern 
Less beauty 
In its object 
Than my memory maintained 
So I whispered to myself 
"All is but illusion 
You did well to love him 
It gave you songs to write 
And kept you safe" 
And with a sigh of relief 
I let you go 
But you would not go 
For you came to me 
In the air about you 
And you walked with me 
From the other side 
Of town 
And you touched me 
With your hands 
Behind your back
So I whispered to myself 
"All is but illusion 
You were wise to look closer 
You have lost nothing 
Only exchanged a face for a soul 
Whatever happens now 
You have been Constant 
And let no one say 
You never loved"
