Paroles de Stray

It rained the whole day he spent at his lover's grave Said his goodbyes to her family and friends Packed his things in a rusted car And rode off in the rain Came upon a church in ruin With an old man dwelling within Who said, "watch where you stray my friend" Old man spoke of meanings lost and without name Never shifting from their worn and weathered place What was found in the endless serach For truth behind the tale Beneath the ash and ember lies only one story to tell Watch where you stray my friend There's a flower that grows in a cave So lovely to see but need to be saved Its' beautiful blossom will wither and die If ever this flower leave the darkness for daylight
