Words That Stay

Where did you go? Nobody knew you were gone
Off to a world to which I'll never belong
You can't be strong when there's no gravity
Floating like pollen, you land where you will

Oh, where did you go? Nobody knew you were gone
Though there are many who wrote of you in song
Only the few get to feel far away
Just close enough to hear the words that sting

Oh, another life of yours is over
Know the woods has narrow rings
A secret door is sure to open
And accept your offering
You only dance if it's to gunshots
And you'll move through it with grace
Send me a postcard when you get to
What I hope is the right place

Where did you do? Nobody knew you were gone
I must have drifted, I don't know for how long
Warm winter clothes in the summer heat
The season you lost is the one you seek, oh
