You are there
You are light and you’re all the air.
You’re everywhere
It makes no difference
Why should I care.
This I know
You’re the darkest night, you’re water, winter snow.
Above below
A breathless whisper
That’s nowhere near.
You are there
You are light and you’re all the air.
You’re everywhere
It makes no difference
Why should I care.
Since you’re not here
You’re every sound
That I cannot hear.
This I see
They’ll never be a time for you and me.
But honestly
I’m walking away
Because you’re nowhere near.
