lyrics

We once had so much laughter
We once had so much joy
We once had dreams and lifetime plans
at least that I recall

A dream of growing older
A dream of beating time
Eternity was our friend
Life a rapid climb

And sometimes there were mountains
Too steep for us to pass
We always found a cutoff
Always found a secret path

I was much too happy
To realize that time
Was running out and fate had plans
That were not really mine

We took that final cutoff
They said were safe and sound
And soon the light of darkness
Gathered all around

The cutoff was much longer
Much stronger was the cold
We were running against all odds
Luck was running out

The choice that we had taken
Was fatal and we knew
In a hopeless situation
We must hope to make it through

We were so close to freedom
Just one step towards the west
We couldn´t find the way to go
We were snowblind and then

The silence
Then the silence
Then the silence
grew upon me

The last time that I saw you
Is burned inside my heart
You reached your hand I couldn´t grab
Two worlds fell apart

I heard a sound of falling
Falling in the snow
I heard my name in whispers
Your voice was fading slow

And the silence
And the silence
And the silence
grew upon me
The Silence
