On this long journey through the dark wood
I wish you were with me
if only you could
But you can't be
and I don't understand.
No sun or moonlight will follow me here
I wish you were with me
if you were near
But you can't be
and I don't understand.
Held up in your castle tower so tall
I wish you were with me
I hear you call
that you can't be
and I don't understand.
I don't understand that I'm not your man
and you're not my girl
So lonely to travel all through this land
alone without you in my world.
On this long journey a mighty dragon stood
I wish I were with you
and only I would
but I can't be
you don't understand.
It's now or never to run or fight
I wish I were with you
on this dark night
but I can't be
you don't understand.
Chained you up in my mind for ever
I wish I were with you
I hear it's never
that I can't be
you don't understand.
I don't understand that I'm not your man
and you're not my girl
So lonely to travel all through this land
alone without you in my world.
On this long journey through the dark wood
I wish you were with me
if only you could
But you can't be
And nor can I
be with you
and we both cry
our journey is through
our journey is through.
