Your Footprints

Your footprints in the snowdrifts by the river
Are as thin as mica.
Two corners of the lake have frozen over,
And the stars within them tremble,
Glowing like embers.
 
I'll take one of your prints in my hand,
But just one touch, and I see that it's only snow.
It separates, it crumbles,
And I hold only water:
All trace of you is gone.
 
Your footprints hold the ice of separation,
But turn back, turn back time,
And return by foreign paths, through a great distance,
Following your tears, following your tracks.
Your footprints hold the ice of separation,
But turn back, turn back time,
And return by foreign paths, through a great distance,
Following your tears, following your tracks.
 
Love leaves a mark where stars swim.
Love is that light which shines without end.
And you will never forget the tears you shed,
For there are no marks that disappear without a trace.
 
Your footprints hold the ice of separation,
But turn back, turn back time,
And return by foreign paths, through a great distance,
Following your tears, following your tracks.
 
Your footprints hold the ice of separation,
But turn back, turn back time,
And return by foreign paths, through a great distance,
Following your tears, following your tracks.
