about

The Grand Finale.

Years have past. Life took its course, the waters are calm and peaceful again. The male character writes a final letter to Greensleeves.

The frontier between dream and reality is now acknowledged to be nothing more than another creation of consciousness. Their love will always exist in the world of dreams, and therefore in the real world as well.

lyrics

Girl
This is my last letter
I’m feeling so much better
I have found someone
And my trip is done

Girl
I see you had a daughter
And you’re pregnant with another
We live under a setting sun

I did love you
From the bottom
Of the ocean of my heart
You ripped it all apart
Like a tide
That’s what I needed
My quest is completed
I was just a butterfly dreaming I was a man
And now I glide

Lady Greensleeves, it would seem
That life is nothing but a dream
Deep inside I still believe
Dreams do happen
As you dive into the wreck
It starts a butterfly effect
Deep inside you still believe
Dreams do happen

Anything can happen in the world of dream

I use to be a sailor
My boat of paper rest underwater
My failure
Was my savior

I learned what love is
It comes from within
I have found someone who loves me
For all that I am
And it's me

Lady Greensleeves, it would seem
That life is nothing but a dream
Deep inside I still believe
Dreams do happen
As you dive into the wreck
It starts a butterfly effect
Deep inside you still believe
Dreams do happen

In dreams, we’re still together
A thousand paper cranes and prayers
Make me wonder
If one day you’ll be the one to send me
A paper plane

Good night Greensleeves
I’ll see you in your dreams
And kiss you in your sleep

Life is but a dream.
