One Last Mile

One last mile

I want to walk with you

Looking into your eyes

Holding your hands

Walking in eternity

To the whale-road (1)

 

My feet were forlorn

Only a few days back

My days were heavy

Only a few days back

My mornings were dark

Only a few days back

My walks were lonely

Only a few days back

Before you took my hands

Into yours

And we walked towards

The whale-road (1)

We just had our first kiss

We just had our first miss

You just wiped the tears from my face

I just had my fears replaced

I just tasted your breath

The taste still lingers

Your blue is still entwined

With the orange hue of my fingers

No don’t let go,

Walk with me

Just one last mile

To the whale-road (1)

We just had our first FIRSTs

Leave the blood-amber(2)

Go break the wound-hoe(3)

I will not let you go

To the weather of weapons(4)

Before you walk with me

Just one last mile

To the whale-road(1)

I will make sure

The last mile lasts forever

The sword will never sleep(5)

We keep walking forever

To the whale-road (1)
