Onward and over the seasons turn
I'm not letting you go
I'm not ready to go

Stay until the mourning shows
After all the people go I won't deny
When you leave the winter rushes in
Through the holes in the sky
Like lonely islands

Onward and over the seasons turn
I'm not letting you go
I'm not ready to go
Former and future; it all will merge
I'm not letting you go
I'm not ready to go

So you're making plans
I've studied all the maps you've pinned up
On the clothesline
But they're only temporary trails
Borders will change waters will rise
Leaving lonely islands

Former and future; it all will merge
I'm not letting you go
I'm not ready to go
Onward and over the seasons turn
I'm not letting you go
I'm not ready to go
