lyrics

Thicker than the blood
Wider than the river back in '97 was
Brother never had
Distance was the way for us to see across the land

You touched the coast
And then came back
Wild as you was

You flew away
Never to land
Wild as you was

Through the window
I view the turning of the seasons
As the wind blows
I'm taken back to when we're children

Running winsome
The world, as I remember, gold and pure
Now it's frozen
And I'm left broken and unsure

Through the window
I search out the sense to find a reason
As the wind blows
I went off to visit where you're sleeping

I see grass grown
And your stillness, the only sign you're leaving
But you're not gone
You're just waiting up ahead for us to meet you

Your daughter's got your eyes
I see you when she smiles
I know it's not goodbye
I'll just see you in a while
