Alexandria lyrics

I just read your letter and fell down to my knees My tears stain the paper and inside I found your keys You're leaving for somewhere to find yourself again You hope I forget you, like an echo in the wind What now my heart cried How am I to survive? Like the ship of Cleopatra With silver oars and flowing purple sails I long for Alexandria The land of fairytales I walk to the bedroom and turn off all the lights I'm hiding from sorrow and the fire of our nights I lay on your pillow and breathe your memory And dream of the city far beyond the deep blue see What now my heart cried How am I to survive?
