The sands collect the signs of the ocean The winds hold sway to swell the motion The breeze that breathes upon the skin The leaves that leave yet only a skein Along, within, and through the years As stray as they never knew the way Allay the doubt, subdue the fear Afraid they never knew your name
These seven years are not so long But long enough for what has come Or may have gathered at your seat Or might have blossomed at our feet Along, within, and through the years As stray as they never knew the way Allay the doubt, subdue the fear Afraid they never knew your name
I gather at the heels in one more stand Briars at the feet, flower in hand The delicate world that wrapped around The disparate soul that it surrounds Along, within, and through the years As stray as they never knew the way Allay the doubt, subdue the fear Afraid they never knew your name
