It’s not the way you had it planned
You can only stand and watch.
Where’s the relief seeing her go on
To watch her journey lead where you can’t go.

And the road goes on without you
And the sun moves over head
But her shadow grows behind her
Stretching back to where you said
“At the end we’ll be together again.”

From within the wind you hear her voice
Echoes mixed with dreams and noise
Yet still it seems it could all be real
How could it come so close to what you feel

And the road retreats behind you
While the sun is over head
But your shadow grows before you
Leading where you will have said
“At the end we’ll be together again.”
Together again.
