I still ride … by lantern light Even when I close… my eyes I keep ask–ing the night why But the wind just … passes by I can’t find you … but I still try Search a–cross the fields… under sky Every road I take… feels misaligned Every vow I swore… undefined And I don’t know … if I’m strong enough To bear the weight… of silent love If I never left your side… Would you still be here alive? If I never chased the war… Would you still wait at the door? If I never rode away… Would you still call out my name? Every town I pass… feels the same Every face just blurs your name I still hear you in the rain at night In the armor I can’t re–move the fight And I don’t know… if I’m strong enough To carry on… when you’re not there If I never left your side… Would you still be here alive? If I never chased the war… Would you still wait at the door? If I never rode away… Would you still call out my name? I pretend … you’re in the keep Safe behind the stone and sleep But pretense won’t turn back time Nor undo this fault of mine If I never rode away… Would you still call out my name…
