The scent of something long lost
lingers on everything I touch
the heart asks pleasure first

The heart of a restless soul
is a sea bird searching for land,
gliding like a shadow over troubled waters
and I clipped your wing

I shall forever carry with me
all that once were
but I shall no more treasure it
my greatest secret

Like the wounded
with nothing left to loose
oh, stormy waters, oh
comes from across oceans,
a longing with no name
from here to there, from lost to found
I risked everything
(easy, for one with nothing left to loose)

Tunes of the piano
like a comforting embrace
careful tunes
whispers of a promise
of a place to find peace
for all imperfect things that is me
careful, careful tunes
awakens buried dreams of a journey

A land beyond the horizon
a land by the edge of the world
is calling my name

Gently it plays,
a minuet
of a distant shore
