At Forest Edge Lyrics



At forest edge

I swore I saw

A lovely young girl

From afar

(Did she smile?)

Yes, she seemed to smile right at me

So I stepped in

(Was it dark?)

Yes, the light was leaving

When came moving off the leaves



Where did she go?



Long branches wet

To hide promises

No one would keep

Wanting to catch a glimpse

I ran deep into the woods

Moving across

I look back to find

I was lost



Up ahead I hear her footstep

But I don't see her anywhere

It's not like me to run off and leave the rest behind

My way home

And just leave this girl and these woods alone

(Is she real?)

Real as I'll never know

The setting sun she soon won't show a thing

I've got to find a path

through the trees

I've got to find my own way



Tonight, I've got to find the right way
