On shores of sea forever lost
Onto which memories have been tossed
Alone and barren the beach does lie
Far beneath a waning sky
Strewn across is sand so cold
Ice cracks around frozen heart's hold
Songs pierce the midnight air
It seems that someone still is waiting there
This place, forgotten, to all but one
From many things now past, to these shores did he run
Alone now he wanders still here
Forever forbidden to return to her so dear
Without even one by his side, he has walked
And to the wind, long has he talked
For ever will he roam alone
Sorrow played deep into his bone
That which he endured and what he did; forgotten
Perhaps for better for one who inner rotten
Could - might yet be - repeat that sin
And always lose, never to win
Songs forgotten and lost now sung
Over the land have been hung
Like seeds of star appearing into the night
As if a slowly fading, failing light
