Based on Portugal 1991 [live version]
Dawnlight kisses the Niagara Falls
Sunlight caresses me with its arms
Sunset! So quick did this day come to end
All to start the greatest journey that we had planned
But‐‐
I stand here on my own
Yes it’s marvellous beholding
This majestic holiday you designed
For me: See your Athabascan home
And begin our new tomorrow
That now cannot come to be
Tell me
Why could I not see‐‐
Why you needed to conceal‐‐
Inside you‐‐
The most darkest shade of grey
Unsaid
Are the vows that we both wrote
Unworn
Is a dress of lace in white
Mmm, timeworn?
So, was that the weight you felt?
Did I add to pressure on you? Was it my fault?
Hush‐‐
Thoughts cascading in my head
I must carry on regardless
Of this aching emptiness in my mind
For now, I shall say a last goodbye
And begin a new tomorrow
On my own yet not alone
That day‐‐
And the news I had to say‐‐
Your hands were colder than ice‐‐
Unheard whispers
I sing loud to you:
There’s a spark of you and me
Her Light shines from
Inside me‐‐
To brighten
The most darkest
shade of grey
