I asked a distant star

I wonder where you are

The shadow at my door

A friend who is no more

I watched him go to the wind

I close my eyes

Goodbye, goodbye my friend



Friends and family

The branches of the tree

Sheltered in the rain

Telling me again

No matter how raindrops run

World will ture

Turn back to the sun

Yeah, yeah



A trick of light upon our eyes

A trick of time upon our lives

Ancient songs cry out to you

Surely this sweet sand is slipping through



I watched him go to the wind

I close my eyes

Goodbye, goodbye my friend yeah



A trick of light upon our eyes

A trick of time upon our lives

Ancient songs cry out to you

And surely this sweet sand is slipping through

Slipping through the glass of time

Surely this sweet sand will run on by and by

And while the days come down to you

You are just a traveler passing through, yeah

Yeah
