Istanbul (Part I) [Died in These City Streets]

In the beginning
I didn't see it coming
Cause we were always
Like two bodies with the same soul
We were one
Alone together
And it felt like forever
Like we were a story not yet told

In Istanbul, when the sun went down
I always heard you in the sounds

We were always tied I swear
Like the tower
Built for a thousand years
Fate didn't see it the way we saw it
We were a melody
That died in these city streets

You told me
To hold on to you
But how could we have known
There was nothing that we could do
Our story was already written in the sands of time
The darkness
On the horizon
Was blocking out the sun as it was shining
We were there crossing every line
We never had a chance but we still tried
We still tried

In Istanbul when the darkness fell
The whole city was unearthly still
I held you as I wished on those cursed stars
Praying to sea, the sky, the city
To the sea, the sky, the city

We were always tied I swear
Like the tower
Built for a thousand years
Fate didn't see it the way we saw it
We were a melody
That died in these city streets

We were a melody
We died in these city streets
Fate didn't see it
The way that we saw it
Our love
Died in these city streets
