Prog's Trip (Progressive/psychedelic/Neo-Folk/Industrial/Blues/Soft Rock) - 2

For a Friend

Other people see other things,
but I remember us so clearly:
we flew together through time,
time that tried to catch up with us.
It was more than forty years,
a long, far too short journey.

So early we saw ourselves as great,
yet in the best of times, small.
And it wasn’t always easy—
for you, for me, for us, for the others.
Sometimes close, sometimes distant, but never lost.
You had so much patience. Patience for the two of us.

Now leave, but stay.
You are no longer
where you’ve been once,
but you’ll always be
here where we are.

Our Danish summers were immense,
full of sand, waves, and wind.
The beach and the sky stretched wide.
We buried our feet in the sand
and gazed out at the sea—
year after year, and sometimes every other one.

Now leave, but stay.
You are no longer
where you’ve been once,
but you’ll always be
here where we are.

People came and people went. Some stayed.
We built houses, planted trees, fathered sons.
We dreamed of changing things,
but in the end, things changed us.
I’d love to have you here—today, always—
but you were taken, and still you remain.

Now leave, but stay.
You are no longer
where you’ve been once,
but you’ll always be
here where we are.

It is what it is—not good and not right.
Is everything finite? I don’t believe so.
It feels cut off, and yet still present.
The wound torments, it burns like fire.
And only memory brings relief,
like my inner dialogue with you.

Other people see other things,
but I remember us so clearly:
we flew together through time,
time that tried to catch up with us.
