so you gone where the winds have carried you
o'er ocean and home to me
twilight in the hills, the day is through
with a tale of the beckoning sea
you read to me
i steep leaves for you
the like the cure for the like
an ear for the word
a sky for the bird
a song for the time movin' by
so you gone where the winds have carried you
your mark in every craft and line
twilight settles in, the day is through
with a song of every color and kind
you read to me
i steep leaves for you
the like the cure for the like
an ear for the word
a sky for the bird
a song for the time movin' by
