Enchantment passing through

Every story, tale or memoir - all are tales of human failing

There'll be no ties of time and space to bind us

And no horizon we shall not pursue
The moments when we smile and those in between

A journey we can only dream of...

( And how is it I say these things so easily to you? )

Is that all that we are good for

Just a stretch of mortal time?

( But why did I tell him this? )

For some god's experiment in which we have no say

( All I've done is tell him things he already knew )

Never wonder what I'll feel as living shuffles by

( He knew... )

A lifetime of not knowing where or how or why or when

( He knew... )

You are all I'll ever want...
