G#m Fb
When she was just a girl,

She expected the world,

But it flew away from her reach,

So she ran away in her sleep.

Every time she closed her eyes.

The wheel breaks the butterfly.

Every tear, a waterfall.

In the night, the stormy night,

She closed her eyes.

In the night, the stormy night,

Away she flied.
