She is in another world,

Kiss her goodbye,

She cannot see us

With her clear eyes,

She's in the young world,

We're in the old.

She has to leave us

And walk in the cold.

Your coat won't wrap her in,

It's not the style.

Don't go a step with her,

She's gone a mile.

This roof won't shelter her,

These walls are strange,

Our love won't comfort her,

She needs the pain.

She has to leave us

And walk through the glass

Into far places

Where we cannot pass.

Ours is a warm house,

Always the same,

She's in the young world

That has no name.

Don't try to keep her,

Leave her alone,

If she turns to look at you,

You'll turn to stone.

Better she forgets us

And goes on her way

Into the bitter world

Where we cannot be.

She is in another world,

Kiss her goodbye,

She cannot see us

With her clear eyes,

She's in the young world,

We're in the old.

She has to leave us

And walk in the cold.
