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
|
