Valediction Lyrics - Pilgrimage - Wishbone Ash

Breathing is a sin, they say 

Loneliness is the price to pay 

Sad for you, I go once more 

I'll dry my eyes on a distant shore 

No way of freezing your rising tide 

No way of keeping you by my side 

Like a bird, I'll fly high 

Guarding over this love of mine 

A room of trust, a room of fears 

A room of laughter with a few sweet tears 

There we lay that sunny dawn 

Calm but helpless as it lingered on 

No way of breaking the march of time 

No way of keeping our love sublime 

Like a bird, I'll fly high 

Watching over this love of mine 

Many times we hurry by 

Lose our problems in a knowing smile 

Many days were swept along 

Left unnoticed as our love grew strong 

Believing each of us would always know 

Believing one of us would never go 

Like a bird, I'll fly high 

Watching over this love of mine
