Lyrics
So we're leaving you behind
Expressing the act of leaving someone or something behind.
Footprints on your shores
Leaving a lasting mark or memory, symbolized by footprints, on the shores of the past.
Washed away forever more
Acknowledging that those marks are washed away, signifying a permanent departure.
Looking at you one last time
Taking a final look at the present or past.
As the wheel of heaven turns
Referencing a cosmic or celestial cycle, possibly indicating a larger, inevitable change.
We are never to return
Declaring the decision not to come back, suggesting a journey into the unknown.
I see it in your eyes as the sky draws your gaze
Observing emotions reflected in someone's eyes as they gaze at the sky, hinting at contemplation or farewell.
Did you get to say goodbye
Raising a question about the opportunity to bid farewell before departure.
Did you see her sad face
Asking whether the person saw the sadness in someone's face during the farewell.
Now we're leaving her behind
Repeating the theme of leaving, emphasizing change and impermanence.
Nothing stays the same
Stating that nothing remains constant or unchanged.
Never to touch this ground again
Expressing a finality in leaving and never returning to a familiar place.
I see it in your eyes as the sky draws your gaze
Reiterating the observation of emotions tied to departing, looking at the sky as a symbol of departure.
Did you get to say goodbye
Repeating the question about the opportunity for goodbyes.
Did you see her sad face
Reiterating the inquiry about recognizing sadness during the departure.
The planet below will soon disappear into space
Anticipating the disappearance of a planet into space, suggesting a grand scale of departure or change.
And now when you close your eyes
Connecting the act of closing one's eyes with the experience of witnessing a departure.
You will see us falling away
Portraying the departure as a visual experience of "falling away" from the observer.
