Where Are You

Where are you, I cant hear you breathing in the wind
Where are you, come I beg, caress, whisper to my soul
Where are you, I cant hear you whistling in the wind
Where are you come quickly, for my heart pants in the wind
Where are you, I cant feel you as in yesterdays wind

I am here, I am planted, on mount set on high
I sing and I whisper, I sigh and I cry
I shall stand here affixed, ontop mountain so tall
Till the wind blows no more
I shall stand, till time collapses, awaiting you forevermore

I am here, I am he, who sucks at your scent in the wind
I am he who affixes wings to your hands I am he
Who can carry you all the way, where it is, you want to go
I shall be in the way, if you let me I pray
I stand till I die, till I am no more

Where are you, I cant hear you
Come to me I pray, for like soldier a fallen, 'tis my heart in the way
Where are you, I cant here you, I listen so still
I shall await you till time standeth still
Where are you I await here, crying as wolf in the night

He stood day and night on mountain covered in snow
Looking to heaven, hands outstretched catching falling snow
Crying dream-maker dream-maker, please let her now come
Nights cold wind cutting stood day in and day out
Feet planted on firm ground, where they lay lovers once in time

The scent of her essence picked up in the rain snow
Laying beneath him a mixed in the snow
He had mourned forty days and forty nights as well
Howling at the night this message to tell
Where are you, I cant hear you, breathing in the wind...
