Project Retouch: Seeker's Lament (feat Anet)


Oh where is my love,
it is gone, lost to me
driven off by pain and by fear
maybe someday I'll reach it
maybe someday I'll find
what so long ago disappeared

How to nurture the soul
how to heal all the wounds
clear the voice that was choked up with tears?
how to bring light to places
on which darkness fell
through the wailing the laughter to hear?

There is time, there is hope
the two comforts of old
bearing me when my strength it is gone
though their hands they are hard
and my mind it is worn
from the endless road I travel on

They say of who seeks
that he also shall find
on that wisdom I will build my dreams
but they say too a seeker
can never find love
pure enough to fulfill his needs

Where the new stars are born
where the oceans collide
the places only dreamers can find
I believe lies my love
neither gone nor forgotten
just hiding and biding its time
