Mother, I am lost
Beyond the hills so far
Daylight cannot find me
Nor yet a guiding star

My heart has burst its bonds again
Confusing what with where and when
Confusing now with how and why
The endless past with time

What is this we dare not face
Endless love or perfect grace
Reflections of our deepest fears
Whichever drawing ever near

How are you to know me
When life is finally run
How are you to tell me from
Another's wayward son

How are you to know me
When life is finally run
How are you to tell me from
Another's wayward son

I'll hide till discovered
Beyond land or sea
In spite of forever
You'll know that it's me
How many angels
Can dance on a pin
The fiddler is ready
So let them begin

My song is the future
My tune is the past
My rhythm is the present
My first is my last

What is this we dare not face
Endless love or perfect grace
Reflections of our deepest fears
Whichever drawing ever near

How are you to know me
When life is finally run
How are you to tell me from
Another's wayward son

How are you to know me
When life is finally run
How are you to tell me from
Another's wayward son
