Tried to walk together
But the night was growing dark
Thought you were beside me
But I reached and you were gone
Sometimes I hear you calling
From some lost and distant shore
I hear you crying softly
For the way it was before
This song wrecked me when it first came out in 2011. We all have that person we pray for most. Pray that they are okay, that they are safe, that they come home.
Where are you now?
Are you lost?
Will I find you again?
Are you alone?
Are you afraid?
Are you searching for me?
Why did you go?
I had to stay
Now I’m reaching for you
Will you wait, will you wait?
Will I see you again?
