I've been away,
Do you miss me today?
And yesterday?
What about yesterday; when we were something so beautiful?
So beautiful, we didn't even know.
And yesterday, what about it?
Did you enjoy it?
Do you remember my smile, like I remember your's today?
I remember, and I remember it all too fondlyβ€” it was the moment I never knew, and became instantly real with you.
Was yesterday your's as it was mine?
It must not have been as fine.
Because I led and you lost the path,
When I led, did I lead too fast?
I followed my path back to the past,
Searching for your love from yesterday,
On the abandoned road to my dismay.

I led with the light of my love;
Did you see it from across the bay?
Was it clouded by the nightly fog?
I tried so desperately to lead your way.
And now, as the darkest night dies,
I wade in the waters of yesterday,
Longing at my sinking heart with sighs.
My lighthouse still shines on your shores with love, now and then,
From my island, I gaze into the new night,
Longing for a ship to sail across the moonlit sea,
Through the fog after a long journey.

"Did you come to see me?" I'd say with hopeless hope.
