Departure

Like drowning in quicksand
You're grasping for my hand
While dreaming of running
In empty rooms and abandoned corridors

I'm screaming and crying
You're life is departing
All doors are now closing
To a past that was once so enticingly free

Your cries are calling to me
You're drifting away
Torn and wounded from life's disarray

Cold faces
Strange places
No warm hands to guide me
I see you
But can't reach you
You're vanishing out of my sight
Cold faces
Strange places
No warm hands to guide me

You're scheming and trying
Our hopes you're denying
We've wondered all this time
How will life change without you here by our side

I'm screaming and crying
You lie there defying
Why are these doors closing?
So many rooms and darkened corridors

Cold faces
Strange places
No warm hands to guide me
I see you
But can't reach you
You're vanishing out of my sight
Cold faces
Strange places
No warm hands to guide me
I see you
But can't reach you
You're vanishing out of my sight

A ship departing from our shore
To unknown destinations
Diminishing from our sight
Appearing in another world,
Another time
