Somewhere far across the sea
Long before you came to me
A girl begins to dream
Time unfurls like bolts of cloth
Cascading till the ends get lost
In possibility
All the things that happened
Haven't happened yet, but suddenly
She feels them like a memory
Her daughter's daughter's daughter
Sleeping in her bed
In front of me, right here
Darling, I can't believe
I'd ever love this deep
I know we'll never meet
But you've always been a part of me
Sometimes I can picture her
An image where the edges blur
A cheek pressed up to mine
I see her sometimes in your eyes
Flashes catch me by surprise
And pull me back in time
All the things that happened
Haven't happened yet, but suddenly
I feel the weight of memory
Your mother's mother's mother
Who you've never met
But I can hear her say
Darling, I can't believe
I'd ever love this deep
I know we'll never meet
But you've always been a part of me
Darling, I can't believe
I'd ever love this deep
I know we'll never meet
But you've always been a part of me
