From the recording Passing Places
Lyrics
I remember the day
When love walked away from my door
It was raining outside
The cold winter wind was wild
Up on the moor
I saw you fade
And the house grew cold
Colours grey
You followed the wind
Took a boat from the shore
To a distant land
The house stood alone once more
Ice from the eaves
Curtains drawn
Winter ghosts moved in
With the wild, wild wind
For too many years
Winter ruled in the land
Still I counted the days
Waiting for your return
Crack of ice
First bud of spring
With the skylark’s call
You came
Now that you’re here
The path is clear
This winter in my heart
Being apart was only the start
Now I have faith
Through the struggles and pain
And I see it plain
Love isn’t going away
It’s here to stay
Here to stay
Love’s here to stay
Here to stay
Love’s here to stay
Here to stay
