LIKE SUNLIGHT SURPRISING THE STILL MOODS OF AUTUMN OR THE SUDDEN REPRISE OF SOME LOST MELODY YOU CAME TO THE SHORE OF MY DREAMS AND YOU CAUGHT THEM THEY LAY IN YOUR HAND BUT BELONGED IN THE SEA
ONCE JUST LIKE YOU I LIVED DEEP IN THE FOREST AND I HAD A LOVE THERE WHO DEARLY LOVED ME BUT MY FEELINGS CHANGED AND MY HEART COULD FIND NO REST I LEFT THERE WITH SORROW AS MY COMPANY
BY FOOLISHNESS LED I ARRIVED IN THE CITY ITS COLD WALLS OF STONE OPENED NO DOORS TO ME MY HEART THOUGH IT TRIED COULD FIND NOT EVEN PITY SO I TOOK MY DREAMS AND RETIRED TO THE SEA
AND OH IN THE DEEP WHERE THE WAITING SEEMS ENDLESS WHERE SOLITUDE ROLLS WITH THE TIDES EBB AND FLOW THE HEART BECOMES STILL AND IT LEARNS TO BE FRIENDLESS TILL FINALLY SILENCE IS ALL IT CAN KNOW
BUT YOU TO YOUR SOFTNESS HAVE DRAWN IN MY SORROW SO SILENTLY STEP FROM THE CRADLE AND GO KNOWING YOUR WARMTH WILL SURROUND ME TOMORROW AND SOME FUTURE SPRING INTO LOVE I WILL GROW
LIKE SUNLIGHT SURPRISING THE STILL MOODS OF AUTUMN OR THE SUDDEN REPRISE OF SOME LOST MELODY YOU CAME TO THE SHORE OF MY DREAMS AND YOU CAUGHT THEM WHEN YOU PUT THEM DOWN PUT THEM DOWN TENDERLY
