Shades of Distant Past
Where now, are you my soul?
What journey have you departed for,
Leaving me behind to feel the absence?
Where now, are you my soul?
What skies do you seek,
While I await in shades of grey?
Where now, are you my heart?
What journey have you departed for,
Leaving me behind to feel the absence?
Where now, are you my heart?
What love have you found,
While I stay here awaiting your return?
Why my heart, have you left me?
The woman I loved misses us.
Rest again in the shade of old happiness or flee on to new.
But please, my heart... whatever you decide...
Please, my heart, take me with you.
