[Verse 1]
Who did you say you were?
I didn't catch your name
Falling down to earth
Down from a higher plane
Oh, it's been decades
Say, what did you see?
Oh, I've been so lonely
Won't you keep me company?
[Verse 2]
Do you remember me?
We met out on the farm
By the fire, you spoke to me
And held me in your arms
The songs you played for me
I long to understand
All along the watchtower
And castles made of sand
[Chorus]
When there was a wilderness, we wandered wild and free
Guilt, she is the governess that guides me back to grieve
What if we were dumb enough to spend eternity
Gathering the garbage washed up on the beach?
Who did you say you were?
I didn't catch your name
Falling down to earth
Down from a higher plane
Oh, it's been decades
Say, what did you see?
Oh, I've been so lonely
Won't you keep me company?
[Verse 2]
Do you remember me?
We met out on the farm
By the fire, you spoke to me
And held me in your arms
The songs you played for me
I long to understand
All along the watchtower
And castles made of sand
[Chorus]
When there was a wilderness, we wandered wild and free
Guilt, she is the governess that guides me back to grieve
What if we were dumb enough to spend eternity
Gathering the garbage washed up on the beach?
