Steven Sater - Those You've Known lyrics

MORITZ Those you've known And lost, still walk behind you All alone They linger till they find you Without them The world grows dark around you And nothing is the same until you know that they have found you WENDLA Those you've pained May carry that still with them All the same They whisper 'All forgiven.' Still your heart says The shadows bring the starlight And everything you've ever been is still there in the dark night WENDLA When the northern wind blows The sorrows your heart holds There are those who still know They're still home We're still home MORITZ (Sung In Counterpart) Though you know You've left them far behind You walk on by yourself, and not with them Still you know They will fill your heart and mind When they say there's a way through this MELCHIOR, MORITZ AND WENDLA Those you've known And lost, still walk behind you All alone Their song still seems to find you They call you As if you knew their longing They whistle through the lonely wind, the long blue shadows falling MELCHIOR All alone But still I hear their yearning Through the dark, the moon, alone there, burning The stars too

They tell of spring returning And summer with another wind that no one yet has known (MORITZ and WENDLA Join with Counterparts) They call me Through all things Night's falling But somehow I go on You watch me Just watch me I'm calling From longing WENDLA (Sung in Counterpart) When the northern wind blows The sorrows your heart's known I believe' MORITZ (Sung in Counterpart) Though you know There's so much more to find Another dream, another love you'll hold Still you know To trust your own true mind On your way you are not alone There are those who still know MELCHIOR Now they'll walk on my arm through the distant night And I won't let them stray from my heart Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light I will read all their dreams to the stars I'll walk now with them I'll call on their names I'll see their thoughts are known Not gone Not gone They walk with my heart And I'll never let them go WENDLA Not gone Not gone Not gone MELCHIOR I'll never let them go I'll never let them go You watch me Just watch me I'm calling I'm calling And one day all will know
