[Verse 1]
It was back in Little Bend that I saw you
Light was changing on the water
Where birds above had flown
There was pain in your eyes, so you vanished in the night

Travel through the night, 'cause there is no fear
Alone but right behind, 'til I watch you disappear

[Chorus]
I'm movin' through the dark of a long black night
Just movin' with the moon and the light it shines
And I'm thinking of a place and it feels so very real
Just movin' through the dark
