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
