There was a time when I didn't show
And every day fell silent as snow
And I recall how you'd come and leave
How you'd come no different from the breeze
There is a song and it plays not far away
People come and gather at the end of the day
And I recall how you'd come and stay awhile
How you'd come no different from a child
I wanted to sing you the story of the sea
I wanted to look and see
For so long I've been parted from
The place I cannot stray beyond
And I recall how it fell upon me
How it fell no different than a dream
All that I've taken is all I have
I won't come back until I am
Empty handed
