Departure and Farewell Songtext
von 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.
