It's not mine anymore, if it ever was at all If it ever lifted high enough to fall It's not mine anymore, I release it on a wing May it travel far and wander back again It's not mine anymore, just a midnight memory Hope and fear of dreams that fade easily It's not mine anymore, lost to bygone centuries And by God I wish they'd come back home to me It's not mine anymore, I release it to the night Slip between my vision and my sight It's not time anymore, I release it to the sound Of every quiet place I've ever found It's not mine anymore, it's been scattered to the wind Endings bleed into the beginnings Not defined anymore, without a finish or a start It floats between the mind and the heart
