Dreams of no return   Waking in the early dawn   Dreams of no return   Waking in the early dawn      To whom I sourly yearned in my weakest spell   But what I could not know you could not show me      Old hotel the walls weep and the door leans   The blackbird quits the eaves   And the lonesome spider sings   Saw my sweet and soothing prayer   Was air      Why should you care   I never saw the tomb you they laid   There was already too much shade   What could it bring   What if you know   I need no hand of yours   But still I feel you kiss   While I have words to sing   Perhaps you treasure nothing   From before      In the time I had no friends   I held your picture like a tongueless bell   When I really saw I was wrong   I wrote this song to seem a fond farewell   I've been in the north west world   Looking out on an endless view   When you were any reason why   Was I really any use to you
