Verse 1

She touched the scars

upon his body

Traced the veins beneath his skin

It felt so right to leave him sleeping

Yet her head began to spin

And when she left, she left no letter

What you don't say no one hears

She shut the door on empty voices

On regret and wasted years

And the heavy shoes and the band of gold
Fell away like melting snow

She crossed the naked spine of England

While the sun was at its height

Solway Sands and Kielder Water

And somewhere north of Tobermory
They say her path began to climb
She was heading for Newfoundland
And she might be gone some time
