You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I’m alone
And so I tell myself that I’ll be strong
And dreaming when they’re gone.
lyrics from Lights by Ellie Goulding
I trust my inner light to lead me out of the darkness…

Say you need me with you now and always;
Promise me that all you say is true
That’s all I ask of you…
from All I Ask of You – Phantom of the Opera
Please do not go back on your word. I could not bear it.

Like a stone
I’ll wait for you there

Once I almost had you
And now I want you again
Sinful bodies, wings of a butterfly.
from Hrisna Tela, Kindla Motyli by Aneta Langerova
I prefer moths to butterflies in the way they are drawn to a flame.
Thanks to Svatava Pearce for the translation.

And who do you think you are
Running ’round leaving scars
Collecting your jar of hearts
And tearing love apart

He kept only my heart.

And if God will send a sign

Would everything be alright?
