What is it that makes darkness give up the ghost?
How can a thousand stars disappear in a flash?
What makes a friend a lover, when a heart is not enough?
Where are the rules on love?
Was it lost in the flood?
Did a mer drop disappear in the pond?
If a diamond teardrop falls from the heart,
wouldn't it float on the surface of the water, and be found?
Did the brightness blind him?
Or was it weighed with heaviness and sound?
What is the weight of my lover's heart?
Is his heart lightweight never staying in one place
floating from room to room?
Or is his heart heavyweight, staying with one?
What is the weight of my lover's heart?
