So, It Is

A faceless soul from long ago

Told me I was looking on

The years I wade

In timeless tongues

And speaking of

Forbidden love

When I was young

But I’m old enough

For that longing star

To burn brightly on

And so they did

And so it is

And there they are

Call me by my Hebrew name

If you get the chance again

The wind is cold

And the view is few

If your sights are set

Then I’d leave with you

To this place I dreamt

So far removed

I was told of this

Sometime in school

And so they did

And so it is

And there they are
