Our Song

These verses are my completion of Pippin's song. The first is the original, the rest are my own. I love to sing them--very haunting.

Home is behind
The world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow
To the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall…
Fade.

Wild is the wind
And black the night
Cool, the moon casts silver light
Run quickly
Let starlight lead
If so we shall go far indeed
Through grasslands
Dew on every blade
All shall fade
All shall…
Fade.

Cold is the sun
Upon the snow
And yet we still have far to go
Through mountains
Into the rain
Experience the world’s pain
Love and longing
Fear and joy and rage
All shall fade
All shall…
Fade.

Warm is the light
Across the sea
There’s nowhere else I’d rather be
Fly the heavens
Sail to world’s end
As long as I go with a friend
Come with me now
Into the waves
All shall fade
All shall…
Fade.
