Where Did You Go

Got back from the cold and found myself alone
Shut out that icy night walking
Looking for your face

I thought there was just one as I searched the crowd
From a day I will not forget
Hoping to find you

Returning a defeated soldier from war
The lines falling back to trenches
Wishing to see you

You had come while I was gone looking for you
Was it you that I saw in fall
Are the two the same

So I looked for the opening and the door
But they were all closed to my heart
So I left alone

Why this pain as I match the falling orange leaves
Lying face down in the dust and dirt
Scared to close my eyes

Please come tomorrow and take me far away
The angel I saw only once
My dry heart in pain
