Lyrics
Once my footsteps were drawn where a young girl was singing
On a cold lonely cliff by the sea
And the song that she sang, was as lonely as dying
And it seemed she was crying to me
Everywhere I go I’m a stranger
Never found a place where I belonged
No one knew my name when I came here
No one’s gonna miss me when I’m gone
Her hair shined as blue as the wing of the raven
And her eyes were as green as the sea
And at night when the wind sounds as lonely as dying
I can still hear her crying to me
Everywhere I go I’m a stranger
Never found a place where I belonged
No one knew my name when I came here
No one’s gonna miss me when I’m gone
