Been here for so long On the morrow I'll dare Silent and distant Reaching out, unaware Stealing the whispers From my deepest request And you watch me Waiting for something new My hands as empty As my body and soul Could keep pretending But in the heart I'd be gone Still stare at my face, but lost seem your eyes Keep hold of the sails against the blue sky Oh, I'm intending A way back to the sea This emptiness burns inside and Leads on for endless miles Don't let me go (don't let me go) Away across the sea (don't let me go) It may be much more wide Than what it seems to be Oh, I'm still searching The way back to be freed The loneliness hangs around us However, we can't see Now let me go (now let me go) Away across the sea (now let me go) The waves can't be as high As they pretend to be And now I know In my heart, I won't forget The sails against the blue sky That taught me how to live With no sorrow And tomorrow we'll share Silence and distance 'Till our faults are repaired You'll be the mistress Who I'll never forget
