As long dark fingers of sunset creep across my heart |
The desert voices haunt me because we're still apart |
It was a choice that I had made when I was very young |
I started a path I couldn't leave once I had begun |
A road to run — A song unsung |
|
There's a whisper of Coyote's Song in my memory |
Reminding me of all were were and never again will be |
Late at night beneath a sky brushed with laughing stars |
He calls your name to me |
And comforts me — And lies to me |
|
You asked me when I left you why did I have to go |
I couldn't really answer because I didn't know |
I couldn't say where I was going, didn't know myself |
There was voice inside me, telling me I had to be |
Somewhere else — Doing something else |
|
I was sure when I left you but I'm not sure now |
I lost my way in all that running and I don't know how |
I feel lost and unsure and very much alone |
And the road I left behind me is the only road back home |
So I go on — Coyote's Song |
