She walks alone through Raindrop Caverns
The water keeps the only light she needs
Nothing to see but her reflection
In the echoed darkness of the raindrop caverns.

She sets herself on bended knees
To try and see her watcher from below
Oh her lonesome journey
She wonders, why must it be so wicked?

These walls used to be filled with song
Her words depicting oceans of depths
These silly raindrops could never imagine
Poor reflection of a soul trapped in a puddle.

She hadn't a person with whom to speak
No one to guide her but the path before her
Through the flame lit walls which sometimes whisper
the secrets she had once, but lost

Lost in solitude, she thought was pure
When a crack above let raindrops fall
She treaded on without a flame
These caves take on a new name

Weary of neverending darkness she rested
She woke months later to a voice screaming her name.
Water rushed by her rain boots
Her heart began to race.

She remembered now how she got here.
She didn't know how long it had been.
and how long did she sleep?
Water came up to her thighs now and she worried

No time to think, never liked time anyway.
Take the plunge or take a dive
A wave came from behind
She smiled and didnt stop swimming.

The water was warm when she finally came up for air
But suddenly there were no walls
(and suddenly she didn't care)
Peddling Backward into the Sea.

Love's arms reached out from the water
Wrapped around her chest
his face unseen, but she recognized him
the one who woke her from slumber and taken her to the sea.

She was eager to turn around and give him everything
but his strength was too much to fight
He said In Time, In Time, In Time
For now I'll just hold you

She never liked time, but she liked Love
And she waited so it may stay
"Who are you, Love?"
he only said, I am Yours.
