Lyrics:

come now sister don’t you wait for the sky to clear
i have never seen it rain so truly
let’s find somewhere to sleep this bus stop’s sinking like a pier
they can wait till morning or a week, or two

i came here not for love but for the possibility
of setting free the love we knew for all of time
don’t you remember i said that i would not forget
your memory is safe with me
and you’re heavenly

the strangest things come to me in my sleep
climb the rolling hills ever so steep
and i don’t recognize you, nor you me
still we know each other so well
i will be the hunter and you can light the fire
keep it burning until i return
as darkness falls i’ll prove it in time to you
oooooh [x4]

all the way to whaler’s cove, the country side and me
every little thing still in its place
if it were that i was where i thought that i would be
surely i would know it in my bones

i came here not for love but for the possibility
of setting free the love we knew for all of time
don’t you remember that i said that i would not forget
your memory is safe with me
and you’re heavenly

the only thing i know is i’m not sure
where i left the keys to all the doors
and now that i am here i don’t know why
everybody looks the same

i will be the hunter, you can light the fire
keep it burning until i return
as darkness falls i’ll prove it in time to you
