about

A song loosely based on The Stolen Child by W. B. Yeats.

lyrics

Feel the stepping stones float beneath your feet
Feel that river wind blowing through the trees
Stop and think about how far you are from the world you know
There's no turning back now, the show is over time to go

A stranger stands before you but he’s not really there
He's come to guide you forward, as he speaks you can only stare

Every time that I miss your embrace
I remember all the freckles on that perfect face
Maybe you are better off in that distant land
For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand

I sit alone at night, I cannot fall asleep
Not that I would want to though cause when I do, you’re all I see
The guilt it haunts my nightmares and seeps into the day
I wish you’d never left us, but I know you could not stay

Every time that I miss your embrace
I remember all the freckles on that perfect face
Maybe you are better off in that distant land
For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand

Come away, O human child
To the waters and the wild
With a faery hand in hand
For the world’s more full of weeping than we can understand

Every time that I miss your embrace
I remember all the freckles on that perfect face
Maybe you are better off in that distant land
For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand

Every time that I miss your embrace
I remember all the freckles on that perfect face
Maybe you are better off in that distant land
For the worlds more full of weeping than you can understand
