lyrics

Verse 1
Here I go again
To stir things up
To remake the past
One more time

I was just a child
When he went away
Slipped out in the night
Like a lost dream

The ties that bind
Leave their mark
But even the scars
Fade

I long for the scars
They gave me life
Time doesn’t heal
It just blurs

Verse 2
The annual crusade
A long pilgrimage
To a tomb
Of the unknown
The place he called home
Is strange to me
Surrounded by the souls
Of his family

I see the name in stone
It’s mine and yet it’s not
Always out of reach
Not belonging

It never fails
A teardrop falls
This talisman
My affliction

Chorus
Do I feel you?
Are you there?
Do I know you?
Do I care?


Verse 3
I can only dream
Of this part of me
A made-up version
Of my history

I keep it alive
Though I question why
Does it do more harm
Than good?

You brought me in
Then let me go
No anchor, no light
Just drifting

The journey lingers on
To find what’s gone
I’ll try again
Next year

Chorus
Do I feel you?
Are you there?
Do I know you?
Do I care?
