I was death Flying high beyond mere existence For what was my life other than suffering Until I saw a rainbow form from my dark clouds For what *** of gold could my soul live without That a perfect circle would never conceal?
My love Until I walked upon the shore I never knew I'd come home For the light I saw Beckoned And it told me what to do And when I came upon you I turned once more to the sea And the light upon the waters was no more As it was now shining only upon me
And the heart that held your ear close Tried to tell you of my past But you said I was good because I wanted love There was no vision that I could see Except the pain you accepted from me You knew I had long drifted By the way I stared back at the sea
The ways of a goodbye is to linger And the way of love is to wait until I am ready
