EN
You can see in the 1st light that's graced as dawn that there's nothing in my heart but pain as I stand, facing sea, knowing that you're gone all the elements rage to explain that I should really be on my way; but there is something which ensures I must stay. Beneath the roar of the seething surf, beneath the caterwaul of scattered call wind thoughts and gestures unspoken, unheard - and now the dance of rapture begins as the waves rush along across the beach: like you, like your love forever out of reach. Look at the sky, but it's empty now; look at the sea, it holds nothing but despair. I raise my eyes, but my head stays bower... I look to my side, but you're not there. And I can't get you out of my mind, no, no, no, no, I just can't get you from my mind
