Tides of mountains crash on the shores of grain 
And in this city of ash I tremble in my private pain 
Will the winds of time blow my heart to me 
Or will I wander forever between grass shores and mountain sea 

Bridge: Foam of avalanche races down the slope 
And in this chromium haze in a maze of question I blindly grope 
Years of wanting you left me pale and worn 
Is it the loving in you or the pain in me that makes me mourn 

Tide of mountain fails shore of grain retreats 
Cities crumble and in your distant eyes my heart still beats 
Will the voice of time call it back to me 
Or will I wait here forever between grass shores and mountain seas 
Will I wander forever between grass shores and mountain seas
