To the Distant Grey

I remember the dreamwind

filling my sails then blowing me off courseI remember the blue sky

the follies of youth and a wish to dieI remember things held close

thrown away and forgottenI foresee that it will come true

this my wind now blows for youcalling calling

across the blueI remember the black heart

the knowledge of age and the falling apartI remember the feelings I lack

and the friendships that were a stab in the backcalling calling

across the blueI will burn this page today

I will throw my life away

I just do not want to stay

I give it all to the beautiful seacalling calling

across the bluecalling calling

across the blueto the distant grey
