It was easier when I let go

It was easier than you will know

Your lovely face, your deepest eyes -

You fade from me in this disguise

But where is my cavalry?

Who's going to follow me

Who will fight by my side?

I'm standing still, I'm standing straight

An ordinary soldier with my blind faith

I hear the wind as I retreat

It sings of when we two shall meet

In the lee of the battle

My heart, heavy like rain

Beats slowly to the single drum

That sounds out your name

But where is my cavalry?

Who's going to follow me?

Who will fight by my side and hold me when I fall?

Who will keep me from slipping into the past?

Who will help me remember I loved and lost well?
