Elder - One Light Retreating Lyrics

Golden leaf wrapped around the neck, idly turning
Reaching for the sky to touch the sun again

Drunken innocence, somatic senses corroding
Roots that yearn to wander and reclaim

Wander on
Floating through the world we made before it's gone

Walk along
One last time to say goodbye

Footsteps echo on
In perpetuum
An age of halcyon
Fades into the past
