4. What the Lovers Left - I say it's Nearing

Back Forth

I say it's nearing,
And you feel it fearing,
What could it be?
Now let us see,
    I think it's threatening
    It's on our dismayals
    Now let it be
    Soon we will see:

Just have a guess
The echoes
turning back,
Now feel the bless
When quarrels turn out lack;
    Seems that what is wrong
    Will turn down our song.

You beg my pardon
I feel like a warden for what we knew
When truth-winds blew through.
    I think it's nagging
    The love that is lacking
    Transformed in your tears
    Now consider your years.

I find the love
That lies behind your back;
It will unfold
Won't fade in some dark sack
    The lack is a theft
    So now it is left

Every time I hurt you dear
I find me here.
Where we sit so alone
It's nowhere to moan
No love-flight would loan
Its air to cruel lacks back-bone.

You find that boredom
Will turn on more boredom,
And I do know how to forgive
Let it grow.
    I find we're aching
    If we are taking
    To what was said
    By the disordered head

And then you smile
To let me cool it down
We'll walk a mile
To mesmerize that frown,
    Why should we stay
    With what troubles our way?

Our friends join the taking,
Left lack to be breaking;
And then we find
The freedom of time
    Time to be near you
    And time to go right through
    The troubles and tears
    Behind al these years.

I find the love
That lies behind your back;
It will unfold
Won't fade in some dark sack,
    The lack is a theft
    So now it is left.
