Translation by:
Maybethings/May
Isabella was my love from a world so different from mine
We were joined by destiny only to be parted by time
The light of day recedes swallowed in the darkness of the night
And a world torn apart puts a single story to flight
In my mind I see her wave and the winter snow melts away
And the world bloomed just like spring filled with love’s own hues bright as day
We closed our eyes to sleep and dreamed till the seasons all changed
And a single lonely sun sets on light a romance’s flame
She was Isabella, a symbol of love gone too far
For ways that could not meet we were both torn apart
And my love is cast away with autumn leaves withered and gray
May your heart be like a door, open and unlocked before me
And my path will soon be clear, should you still have faith in us
Oh! Isabella…
She was Isabella, a symbol of love gone too far
For ways that could not meet we were both torn apart
And my love is cast away with autumn leaves withered and gray
My direction in life took me far from my Isabella
But it had to be done for the sake of my love, Isabella
May your heart be like a door, open and unlocked before me
And my path will soon be clear, should you still have faith in us
Oh! Isabella…
