|
Came from the west, only to fly again |
|
The eyes that see, the lips that tell no tales |
|
Nobody's guest, dressed like a mannequin |
|
Put out to sea before the ship had sails |
|
I have always dreamed that somewhere in your heart |
|
There's a guiding light still shines |
|
For our lives and times we should have spent together |
|
But we passed each other by like seasons out of time |
|
Easter you left, changed more than anyone |
|
I asked you why, you told me, ' |
|
Just because' |
|
Nobody guessed, under your influence |
|
The man I am is not the man |
|
I was We have lived our lives across this great divide |
|
I couldn't make you change your mind |
|
And we almost glimpsed a promise of forever |
|
But we passed along the way like seasons out of time |
|
Sometimes everything is hard to bear |
|
Let go, following without a care |
|
Still now, though it's hard to understand |
|
We built on shifting sand |
|
Somehow memories are more than this |
|
Set free only with a deathly kiss |
|
And now when the restless hour is high |
|
A million stars go by |
|
We never can remember all the lives we've lived before |
|
The days decline in number, slip the ropes away from shore |
|
Whenever Heaven calls us there's regret and compromise |
|
And in another distance lies a past unrealised |
|
Where are you now? |
|
Who are you now? |
|
Is anyone really gone? |
|
In all the world, in all this space, the race is run |
|
I have always dreamed that somewhere in your heart |
|
There's a guiding light still shines |
|
For our lives and times we should have spent together |
|
But we passed each other by like seasons out of time |
