As unexpected vision
In a faraway foreign land
You took away my heart
But I couldn't take your hand

Floating on the mist by a willow-lined lake
You played the part of temptress
Or was it just my mistake?

To the backdrop of a chateau
And an antiquated mill
You enchanted my soul
And I was captured until I realised
That fate was never on my side
Then you drifted out of view
And the moment's magic died

Je croyais t'avoir vue
Je suis súr que je t'ai vue
Mais non, je sais que je t'ai vue
Je t'ai vu

I saw you

Or were you just a passing shadow
Or were you just a passing dream
Tell me, were you just a passing shadow
Or were you just a broken dream

Or were you just apassing shadow
Or were you just a broken dream
