Tell me till my heart aches
Tell me so I know
The story of your sorrow
The truth beyond my longing.
Lost continent of frozen dreams
Where ice surrounds the fires
As darkness turns to empty dawn
You stood alone in the cold wind.
Tell me where you wandered
Tell me who you loved.
Twas you I loved, twas ever you,
But I walked away into cold winds.
Tell me how much time has passed
And how much time remains.
Forever and a day has passed,
And only now remains.
(The first eight words were clearly sung by a torch song singer in a dream, in another plane or timeline; then my awareness snapped back here. Touched, I decided to imagine the song into being in this plane, and this is what we get.)
