i take you through the flow of time
to free your thoughts and make them mine
with the wind i guide your way
a place to hide, where you can stay

i whisper softly in your ear:
“don’t always listen, have no fear.”
you may hurt me; i’ll forgive,
a fleeting tear is how i live

who i am is you and me
together bound, yet never free
we cannot last, we fade away
this silence steals the words we say

too fast i was, too slow i grew
to speak the truth i owed to you
but still i hold, though life feels stark
i see you shining in the dark
