Like a Gust of Fresh Air

As I look back, my love, I see smoke not the ashes 
And finally I come to see the truth 
Just as we are we were made, by our hearts and so we 
paved the roads that built our Rome 
Like a gust of fresh air, 
you're my spring tide, 
foreverness, 
my eternal constant love 

Years seemed so kind, just as sands of the oceans
Like beggars we've stolen times  grandiose  
Sailing through tears, leaving sorrow and fear 
we chartered to see our hopes renewed 
Like a gust of fresh air, 
you're my spring tide, 
foreverness, 
my eternal constant love

The world was our carpet, the heavens our comfort
How high could our union spread its wings 
Yet it's hard to believe, where there were two now lives emptiness, 
A world without you is just plain despair 
Yet... Like a gust of fresh air, 
you're my spring tide, 
foreverness, 
my eternal constant love
