We wander aimlessly
through raging seas,
with doubt in our minds,
lost amongst the trees.
We steal away
to a quiet place;
try to disappear
without any trace
The presuppositions
which rule our lives
are forgotten here;
we've broken the ties.
We can live in this world,
Where we're all alone
and forget all about
what waits at home.
Just be ourselves
and be together
wishing this time
could last forever,
though we know it can't
and we'll have to return
before we've been taught
everything we should learn.
So we'll just make the most
of what we have now;
with a few stolen hours
we'll get by somehow.
And we'll look back and laugh
at those few stormy days,
because they meant so much
in so many ways.
