Departure and Farewell - Hem

The summer folds the afternoon

And pins a shadow to the lawn

And sweeps across the empty room

Where I am gone

The sunlight films my waving hands

The final scene has just begun

And pulling back the world expands

And I am gone

Hey, I am gone

Along the way I’ll say to you

«So long, my love, so long…»

Another light now fills the sky

The window searches for the sun

Another chance to say goodbye

But I am gone

Hey, I am gone

I’ll find a way to say to you

«So long, my love.

so long, my love.»

So long…

I’m pulling back

The world expands

And I am gone
