Footsteps in the dust, on roads that never meet
Two worlds apart, under skies that never speak
A river flows between us, but we don't even try
To cross the waves that rise, just let them pass us by.
The echo of your shadow falls, but fades into the night.
Words we never said, now buried out of sight
We live in silent rooms, on paths we never see
Caught in the winds of time, just you and me.
I walk alone, you disappear,
In the distance, I still hear,
The empty sound of what could be
But you and I, we let it be.
A tree grows tall, but branches never touch.
The sun it sets behind us, but we don't notice much.
A lighthouse in the distance, the storm it spins around,
But neither one of us would ever lay our anchors down.
I see your face in passing clouds, but never in my dreams
We're caught in distant moments, nothing's as it seems
We live in silent rooms, on paths we never see
Caught in the winds of time, just you and me.
I walk alone, you disappear
In the distance, I still hear
The empty sound of what could be
But you and I, we let it be.
Now you're gone, the space is wide
The clock keeps ticking, but we can't rewind,
A letter never written, a door that never closed.
I stand alone, with all we never chose.
We lived in silent rooms, on paths we couldn't see
Caught in the winds of time, just you and me.
I walked alone, you disappeared
In the distance, I still hear
The empty sound of what could be
But you and I, we let it be.
Now the stars are dim, the earth is cold
And in the end, we lost the hold
I mourn the love we never knew
I mourn the space between us two
But now it's done, you're far from here
And all that's left, is what we feared.
