Though once very close...
(Drawn together as lovers,
Across a continent I traveled
To stand at your side
On that snow-covered shore),
Though once very close,
You feel strangely more distant
And seem to grow ever farther...
In your heart and your spirit
I seem to fade more and more.
So many things
That we try to hold on to
Are like sand through our fingers:
In a moment they go!
It's so very sad
When something so precious
Is melting before us
Like the late winter snow.
Apart once again,
In the dark I awaken
From dreams of us standing
Beside that cold, stormy sea,
But like a ship in that harbor
Sailing out ever farther
Into the dim seaside sunset,
So your love is to me.

EVER FARTHER
