about

Originally recorded on Cathy's solo album "Amber Road", 2010.

lyrics

An old soul born again to walk among us
Counting time face by face and line by line
Day by day, brightest light casts darkest shadow
Shining eyes daring me to look within

But his heart is dark
And his heart is deep
As he walks amid the shadows
In and out of space and time like smoke

A cold hand placed so gently on my shoulder
Backward glance proves to me I’m not alone
Round and round, hide and seek among the trees
I must return to the here and now

But my heart is dark
And my heart is deep
As I walk amid the shadows
In and out of space and time like smoke

One small spark is enough to light the dark
One bright flame is enough to banish blame
This is who I am, light and dark it’s all the same
Take my hand, I am not afraid

Tho’ his heart is dark
And my heart is deep
As we walk amid the shadows
In and out of space and time like smoke
His heart is dark
My heart is deep
We walk amid the shadows
In and out of space and time like smoke
Like smoke
Like smoke
