You cried to me take me where the sea traces the sand so I led you down the winding path secluded, hypnotic, alluring You closed your eyes took a deep breath as if to physically take it all in But you turned your back to the wonderland I cherished This isn't what I seek you sighed in defeat Show me the place where mountain tops reach the clouds So I led you through the treacherous and gruelling terrain You walked up to the edge and were mesmerized Then you looked at me You sighed yet again in defeat My love I don't know what it is you long after I've shown you the most glorious places I know "But It's not what i must see it's about what I must feel" you said to me I didn't get it then but now that you're gone it all makes sense
