Tomorrow, I will be so far away,
Don’t search, I won’t be found.
Those with forgiving hearts,
Forgive me of this love unmade.
Yes, time will heal the pain,
And I must set off on my way.
The one who loved me will return unto your fields
From desert’s glower,
He’ll understand – I lived amongst you, not unlike
A wild flower.
My eyes, they want to open and awake,
In time, I want to grow.
I’ve dreamt devouring dreams
They left me dazzled and afraid.
I sought to comfort you
But all my passions were betrayed.
And in my arms – the storms, the childhood enchantment
I held so tight,
They sparked a fire, so intense and so forbidden
It lit the night.
Yes once, we shared the longing of our nights,
Our days were built on sand*
We harbored hidden hurts
And moments of pure wild aband’n.
You fixed your gaze on me,
Upon my shoulder laid your hand.
I’ll be a shadow on your fields, a passing secret,
But for an hour;
Farewell my friends, I lived amongst you, not unlike
A wild flower.
