She is in another world, Kiss her goodbye, She cannot see us With her clear eyes, She's in the young world, We're in the old. She has to leave us And walk in the cold. Your coat won't wrap her in, It's not the style. Don't go a step with her, She's gone a mile. This roof won't shelter her, These walls are strange, Our love won't comfort her, She needs the pain. She has to leave us And walk through the glass Into far places Where we cannot pass. Ours is a warm house, Always the same, She's in the young world That has no name. Don't try to keep her, Leave her alone, If she turns to look at you, You'll turn to stone. Better she forgets us And goes on her way Into the bitter world Where we cannot be. She is in another world, Kiss her goodbye, She cannot see us With her clear eyes, She's in the young world, We're in the old. She has to leave us And walk in the cold.
