Tell me where the feeling goes
tell me how to send it there
away from me, away from me
lead away my misery

You visit, and the old days are back
it's like your shadow never passed
over me, over me
lead away my misery

I can't pretend it never happened
the slate will never be so clean
read to me, read to me
the words that beg us now to see

The daily grind returns us to dust
the heat of distance ashes makes
longing still, longing still
for singing birds on our windowsill

As the sky is black and the moon is white
one so dark, one so light
it all must pass into mystery
away from me, away from me
passing by this misery
