I walk along the river in a thick fog You tell me about a book your father once gave you In my head turns this melody, no words And you read me a princess story from a distance The trees stand and criss-cross in a thick fog Miles separate us, between this story Yours and my steps in the mud You offer me your trust I listen to the birds and your words But from a distance The song breaks through the clouds for a moment You talk to me about travels Somewhere stories being told And my steps in the mud Bring me closer to silence
