Lyrics

Solitude, solitude

We come into this world alone
And to this place we return again
Far away in a quiet place
Try to think while in an open space
I watch my life flash before me
Remembered friends that I love so dearly
And while a veil obscures my vision
I surrender to the will of god

I found peace, yes, I found peace at last
All I see has been meant to be
Down, down in the forest clearing
With a breeze blowing through the branches
And I breathe in and out so very slowly
It sends a shiver right down my spine
In the quiet I can come to terms with
All I've done and who I am

I turn and face the sun
Then all my troubles fall behind me like a shadow
In solitude
Solitude
