This song was written for a friend (Stuart) who is relocating to another part of the country.

We’ll miss you
When you’ve gone
In this parting
Of the way.

In a journey
Made of song
Some echoes here
Will stay.

As day
Stretches out
As sun
Pursues the moon.

You’ll sing
A fresh new song
At the end
Of afternoon.

As you vanish
From our sight
With fresh life
Just ahead.

You’ll move
Along a road
To where
You have been led.

In the hours
And the days
Drifting
Slightly apart

Drawn onwards
By the light
Pressed onwards
By your heart.

Circling
In the gyre
Seeking out
Your ease.

Drawn onwards
By the light
Pressed onwards
In a breeze.

We’ll miss you
When you’ve gone
In this parting
Of the way.

In a journey
Made of song
Some echoes here
Will stay.

Drawn onwards
By the light
Pressed onwards
By your heart.

In the hours
And the days
Drifting
Slightly apart

You’ll move
Along a road
To where
You have been led.

As you vanish
From our sight
With fresh life
Just ahead.
