silence & distance

been here for so long, on the morrow i'll dare, silent and distant, reaching out, unaware, stealing the whispers, from my deepest request, and you watch me, waiting for something new, my hands, as empty, as my body and soul, could keep pretending, but in the heart i'd be gone. still stare at my face, but lost seem your eyes, keep hold of the sails, against the blue sky, ooh, i'm intending, a way back to the sea, this emptiness burns inside, and leads on for endless miles, don't let me go, away across the sea, it may be much more wide, than what it seems to be, ooh, i'm still searching, the way back to be freed, the loneliness hangs around us, however we can't see, now let me go, away across the sea, the waves can't be as high, as they pretend to be, and now i know, in my heart, i won't forget, the sails against the blue sky, that taught me how to live,with no sorrow, and tomorrow we'll share, silence and distance, 'till our faults are repaired, you'll be the mistress, who i'll never forget.
