Bob Carpenter Silent Passage song lyrics

Before the war I had no need for traveling

Indeed, I do not know what made it so important to leave

And after all this time I found that I'm avoiding me

For nothing more or less then fear

of what I have to gain from staying in the clear

All though it's only coming home that brings you near

Master Dough, my brother, is a sailor

Upon this ship of light we are the master sails in the wind

And you can understand, we need a hand to guide us in

So many claim to be the one

But like a shadow on the sun they fade and???

And we are scattered on the ocean once again

Before the war I had no need for traveling

Indeed, I do not know what made it so important to leave

And after all this time I found that I'm avoiding me

For nothing more or less then fear

of what I have to gain from staying in the clear

Although it's only coming home that brings you near

Although it's only coming home that brings the tears
