wayfaring in the dead of night
where I once lost precious things
once it seemed for a while
now it's forever

this is a song for the lovelorn generation
please think of me when you read these lines
this is song for the lovelorn generation
a farewell letter for the ones i've left behind

your celestial flowers seared on my window sill
now as you are gone these cold days break my will

wayfaring through the city streets
that once swallowed precious things
i try so hard to disappear
where the most precious things vanished once

i carry the ruin away
tonight they bury the love with me
and carry the sorrows away
what a lovelorn requiem

they were the tear drop on my frozen field
now the winter seems eternal
