Lyrics One Light Retreating - Elder

One Light Retreating

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
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
