Evenstar

I caught a breeze
Here where we stood
Was it years ago
So many, yet few have passed
Memory only musters pain
When I remember all
That was beautiful yesterday
Now I'm here
Where we stood

All that I am
Is scattered throughout time
The ends of the world
Are now beyond my grasp
All for you my love

All that were here have left
Inside I feel a rift
An aching that overwhelms me
Like a fever of coming death
The sweetest air will soon leave
The winter soon will strip from me
The last of my resolve
The last shroud of who I was

All that I am
Is scattered throughout time
The ends of the world
Are now beyond my grasp
All for you my love

I close my eyes
And even I forget
What it was like
To see in their faces
The light of the trees
Such is this mortal life

After a thousand seasons leave
You forget that you weren't counting
And it all moves oh so swiftly
You were a gleam of beauty
Beyond that of mortal summers
That flicker and pass
They say that we are not bound
To the circles of this world
So my love I lay me down
For this age I'll no longer endure

All that I am
Is scattered throughout time
The ends of the world
Are now beyond my grasp
All for you my love
All for you my love
