How many roads travelled together
How many paths re-trod
How many rains, how many snows
Quietly fall in lamplight soft
How many letters, how many farewells
How many hours in cities strange
With refound strength to rise anew
And strive again to destiny reach
In anguish long grown infinite
With burdens carried sure
Bread and sunshine now are shared
With kisses, stairways, tomes
Your eyes like candles radiant
Your heart it's shining birth
A heart that I would gladly hear
And rescue from oblivion
A coat around your shoulders
With woodland birdsong loud
Carries far through hallways long
And constant to the Venus star
You, the flight and clouds so high
Glimmered water, shining stone
A light would be for darkened eyes
And rescue from oblivion
