Where dips the rocky highland, of Sleuth Wood in the lake
There lies a leafy island, where flapping herons wake
The drowsy water rats; There we've hid our faery vats
Full of berrys and of reddest stolen cherries
Come away, O human child! To the waters and the wild, With a faery, hand in hand
For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand
You can tell me that's there's nothing more to say, you've thought it through
Time is drawing near for you to leave your own path to pursue
I have loved you all this time, I never thought that it would end
You need something more than me, farewell my friend
I can't live your life for you, got to make your own mistakes
If you got what it takes
Hold my hand and say goodbye, forever's a real long time
You'll be on my mind
I forget the number, but I still can count the days
I can't feel you anymore, though you are just a touch away
Time to take your leap of faith, leave me behind, go your own way
But if you should need a friend I'll be here, needless to say
I can't live your life for you, got to make your own mistakes
If you got what it takes
Hold my hand and say goodbye, forever's a real long time
You'll be on my mind
Intermezzo
I can't live your life for you, got to make your own mistakes
If you got what it takes
Hold my hand and say goodbye, forever's a real long time
You'll be on my mind
I can't live your life for you, got to make your own mistakes
If you got what it takes
Hold my hand and say goodbye, forever's a real long time
You'll be on my mind
