The Visitor - Edenbridge

Where are you?

Frozen in time

It makes my blood run cold

Long ago

And far away

It all got uncontrolled

Again I see you fading

Right into mortal clay

I’m eagerly awaiting

Your return one day

An angry sky

All came up dry

So tired and drawn

All lost and gone

Waiting for a lifetime in the tides

When the visitor arrives

Let me just hold on one moment

The time of life’s too short to hide

Your light

Said the visitor at night

Just move on with your life let go

And come out from below

I seek for alchemy

To cross the boundary

I won’t cast adrift

A heavy burden set in

When all got out of phase

It took away my passion

It took away the days

So ease my pain

Is all in vain

A second chance

Just one last glance

Waiting for a lifetime in the tides

When the visitor arrives

Let me just hold on one moment

The time of life’s too short to hide

Your light

Said the visitor at night

Said the visitor in pale light

Take the early hour

Leave your ivory tower

Live your life for your own sake

A drop in the ocean

Restlessly in motion

Reality is what you make

I only need to know

You’re fine before I go

You’re never riding for a fall

Don’t fight this losing battle

Take this life and saddle

I’m not the be and end of all
