If I say when

And you ask where

And we clasp hands before adieu

From land of shadows, dreams, and hopes to come

I shed no pain and bear no tears

Because loss of shadows brings

Only light of truth.

But if I catch just a glimpse of you

‘Round the bend of shadow’s realm

And abandon dreams of you

For earth’s most desperate need

Will you still come,

Flying ‘cross the realms of space and time,

Guided by the passion of my soul

As prayers extend from gritty earth to silken sky?
