Stand here by my side
Along the banks
Not from the whole wide world
I have cast the world aside
I love my hour of wind and light
I have to say good-night

Still her gray rocks linger by the sea

Happiness…
I am the wind that wavers
My soul goes clad in gorgeous things
Shades of night were falling fast
Stern; cold
I sometimes wonder if it’s really true
That my sorrow
Is yours, too.
