all my time i spent

the widow said as she bent

giving what meant everything

and all my company

are memories whispering

down by the forest

down by the forest

all the time in the world

is yours, she said as she went

with her thoughts on her dreams

i hardly knew you

yet i packed all i valued

and followed like

dust in the wind

can you give me sanctuary

when the babbling brook

runs dry?

can you give me understanding

when there's nothing left

to try?

what about your brothers

and all you had for lovers?

did they blow away like candles

in the night?

i saw you begging

on the day of the wedding

she don't wander by herself

where are

your sons and your daughters?

can you give me sanctuary

when the babbling brook

runs dry?

can you give me understanding

when there's nothing left

to try?

all my time i spent

the widow said as she bent

giving what meant everything

and all my company are

memories whispering

down by the forest

down by the forest

down by the forest
