Album: Against Our Own Retreat

We walked across the sand
Two trails with tales to tell
And our footprints kept our track
Until there were only two
One pair of prints pronounced one presence
Did you watch me from the heavens?

(I asked why)
Why did you, why did you ascend alone?
Why did you, why did you ascend alone?
Could i make, could i make it on my own?
(You replied)
I'd never leave you, never leave you
I loved you
I carried you

We flashed across the sky
Each step one day one night
But if i held on tight
Would you take me with you?
The oceans seemed to widen
From shoreline to shoreline
to shoreline to shoreline to shoreline
That I'd never have to lean against the wind
And I'd never have to be alone again And I'd never have to be alone again
And I'd never have to be alone again
That I'd never have to lean against the wind
That I'd never (I'd never)

(I asked why)
Why did you,why did you ascend alone Why did you,why did you ascend alone
Could i make, could i make it on my own
(You replied)
I'd never leave you, never leave you
I love you

(I asked why)
Why did you,why did you ascend alone
Why did you,why did you ascend alone
Could i make, could i make it on my own
You replied
I'd never leave you, never leave you
I love you
I carried you
