You will grow old in another's arms, not mine And in your comfort zone You will remember again the boy at the gate Leaning his head to see between The lime tree branches - the absence of you Why would I walk so far in the sun To see you hiding among the shadows Your voice bellowing - I know the old Unresolved of childhood, the indelible Of pain nibbling where you hide your peace - Some things are never meant to me It does not matter now my longing to be free From the sun burning hollow place
