lyrics

In the land of the pines
I made up my mind
I ain't gunna see you anymore

Above the tree line
I could see what wasn't mine
And it stretched from here to yours

Though which was once so bright
Be now taken from our sight
Hold close to what you know and know that its alright
I may come and go, travel in the night
So don't be a waiting

As the clouds roll by
without a care or a sigh
I pray that you will understand

Sorry if I lied
This is my goodbye
Fairly well my companion

Though nothing can take back the hour
In the splendour of the grass, in the beauty in a flower
Please do not linger, rather find
Strength in what remains behind

As the rain turns to snow
And the wind begins to blow
I look back at what we had

It wasn't long ago
But looking back a little more
I was young and I was sad

Though which was once so bright
Be now taken from our sight
Hold close to what you know and know that it's alright
I may come and go, travel in the night
So don't be a waiting
