|
Rain a plague of drowning days |
|
Gray and cold |
|
Time in time she went away |
|
Truth untold |
|
Down the road through the gate |
|
Here are flowers moss and stone |
|
Clear the path to the door |
|
The quiet house is now her own |
|
Safe the secrets that she knew |
|
Still we learned |
|
Hope just like a garden grew |
|
She returned |
|
Down the road through the gate |
|
Here are flowers moss and stone |
|
Clear the path to the door |
|
The quiet house is now her own |
|
Something is ending |
|
Something beginning |
|
There in the dark of the woods |
|
Chasing light through the trees |
|
We ran as fast as we could |
|
Till she stopped suddenly |
|
Warm was her breath on my skin |
|
As she kissed me and cried |
|
Then she disappeared from within |
|
To a place she could hide |
|
Now there's a hole in the night |
|
Where her light used to be |
|
So I light a candle and wait |
|
And I pray she is free |
|
Down the road in the quiet house |
