You look like an air-like shell
Without a soul to steal away
Born in a big family
Grown up in spotlight and fame
Were you ever blessed under the pressure
Your father has put onto you?
I taste nothing in your tears
No joy and no daze
I hope to read a tragedy
Out of your pretty blue eyes
I hope to see some clues
Of prudence and gloom
Are you still the same dancer
Like you were yesterday?
Who bears the blame for your broken bones?
Who's to blame for your tears at night?
My sweetest angel
You want to break free
You're not crazy
With the smile of a baby in your face
Tried to understand
Why you've abandoned the world of make-believe
Now i understand
You never have let me down
Were you ever bright
Early in your living dream of a dancer?
Were you really bright
Or was it just a lie
Black clouds and rain
Storm and deluge
Too many lies
Wrong words and pleas
Unverified stories
My sweetest angel
You want to break free
You're not crazy
With the smile of a baby in your face
I don't know what happened
Nobody could ever know
I don't know who you really are
Nobody will ever know
I just want to wish you well
Wherever you stay
Wherever you paint
Wherever you draw
Wherever you sing and dance
No matter if you cry
No matter if you smile
I just want to wish you well
My sweetest angel
You want to break free
You're not crazy
With the smile of a baby in your face
You look like an air-like shell
Without a soul to steal away
