about

For Jacques (1977–2012)

lyrics

Wandering in the forest
Lost among the trees
Were you in the distance
Calling out to me?
I thought I heard you there
It’s like you were everywhere

Running through the undergrowth
Brush against my skin
Were you in the branches
Reaching out to me?
I thought I felt you there
It’s like you were everywhere
Deep in the forest

Lying down and drifting
Into a dream
Were you in the clearing
Beckoning to me?
I thought I saw you there
It’s like you were everywhere
Deep in the forest

Could it be that I'm mistaken?
Is there nothing there to see?
When will I awaken
From my reverie?

Deep in the forest
I thought I saw you there
It’s like you were everywhere
Deep in the forest
