Heather Dale - Miles to Go lyrics

Walk with me, my heart The gate is much too spare a place to speak And the gardens put to shame the meadow's bloom An Eden set apart I fancy Eve herself knew scent as sweet I see that patch of lilies from my room I'm glad you finally came I watched you ride along the path below I'm turning from that road But even yet I have so many miles to go I've reconciled my mind To living out my life within these walls It's not what you had hoped to hear, I know But what I hope to find Is better sought within the cloister's halls And peace is all that matters to me now I know you offer love But in me now that path is overgrown I'm turning from that road But even yet I have so many miles to go I hear he died alone Surrounded by the bodies of his knights And heaven wept until no tears would come I swore I would atone For failing him and shadowing his light With all the things I did and should have done Fare thee well, my love I'll watch you ride along the path below I'm turning from that road But even yet I have so many miles to go
