Where did you go when you went away 
Why did you go even though I heard you say
You'd be with me each and every day 

Whispered truths and wisdom hale 
This a vessel that should sail 
Like a rock in sea travail 
In the distance vision pale

I hear your voice in silence still 
I bend and cower to your will
In the quiet of the lonely walk
It's your words on wind to me that talk

Soft and whispy sweet and near
In my eager open ear
I miss the tender teasing kiss
Oh never gone but now remis

My tower steely rising stark
Strong and yet so quick to bend
Amid the ordinary folk
My extraordinary friend 

You know the night is black
No I just want you back
You know the night is dark
Bite is worse than its bark
You know the night is young 
And so the trap is sprung
You should come back to me e e e e
