The forest has been waiting for you Patient but forever it has Been quietly pining for you to return Its heartbeat's track of ballads The doe appears out of nowhere There's a screeching of wheels That's how I think of you A beauty the world is always narrowly missing The sky has been calling your name But you forgot how to listen Long ago you once joined feathers to clouds And in sunlight made them glisten The cat lurks in the shadows There's a midnight cast to her back That is how I think of you A haunting spirit with grace but no definition The sea has been forever taunting you Its crashes add to your fear The knowledge of that waterlogged creature Somewhere deep down there The breeze catches your hair There's a soft roll of thunder in the twilight That is how I think of you A gentle storm to rock a child to sleep

Quiet From the Steps (For V)
The forest has been waiting for you Patient but forever it has Been quietly pining for you to return Its heartbeat's track of ballads The doe appears out of nowhere There's a screeching of wheels That's how I think of you A beauty the world is always narrowly missing The sky has been calling your name But you forgot how to listen Long ago you once joined feathers to clouds And in sunlight made them glisten The cat lurks in the shadows There's a midnight cast to her back That is how I think of you A haunting spirit with grace but no definition The sea has been forever taunting you Its crashes add to your fear The knowledge of that waterlogged creature Somewhere deep down there The breeze catches your hair There's a soft roll of thunder in the twilight That is how I think of you A gentle storm to rock a child to sleep
