Silent Passage Lyrics - Silent Passage - Bob Carpenter

Before the war I had no need for traveling 

Indeed, I do not know what made it so important to leave 

And after all this time I found that I'm avoiding me 

For nothing more or less then fear 

of what I have to gain from staying in the clear 

All though it's only coming home that brings you near 

Master Dough, my brother, is a sailor 

Upon this ship of light we are the master sails in the wind 

And you can understand, we need a hand to guide us in 

So many claim to be the one 

But like a shadow on the sun they fade and ??? 

And we are scattered on the ocean once again 

Before the war I had no need for traveling 

Indeed, I do not know what made it so important to leave 

And after all this time I found that I'm avoiding me 

For nothing more or less then fear 

of what I have to gain from staying in the clear 

Although it's only coming home that brings you near 

Although it's only coming home that brings the tears
