A lonely calm
Presides
A suitcase by
Her side
A stillness to
Break hearts
This is where her life starts
Almost twilight
A breath away
From twilight
The day may be ending
But it's the beginning
Of her life
Of her life
Anticipation
Fills the passing minutes
The air alive
With slow motion spirits
She thinks by now
They'll see she's gone
Running to
Not running from
Not running from
Almost twilight
A breath away
From twilight
The day may be ending
But it's the beginning
Of her life
Of her life
A checkered skirt
A ponytail
Distant water
Low lying clouds
A deserted road
Curves out of sight
Almost twilight
