[Verse

Whispers in the cedars

Echoes in the pine

Lost are the answers in a bottle of wine

Moonlight through the branches

Casting shadows on the ground

How will I know if you're nowhere to be found?

[Verse 2

Winding roads lead to nowhere

Just dust on my boots

Songs of distant sirens and old wooden flutes

Stumble through the twilight

Find a place to hide

How will I know if you're not by my side?

[Chorus

How will I know

When the night is cold?

How will I see

When the path's untold?

How will I find

The truth in the grey?

How will I know if you've gone away?

[Verse 3

Letters left unanswered

Stories left to age

Pages of our history

Locked up in a cage

Rivers overflowing with memories of gold

How will I know if the tale's been told?

[Verse 4

Bonfires burning softly

Embers in the air

Old friends and strangers pretending to care

Eyes search for meaning in the ashes of the coals

How will I know if I've lost your soul?

[Chorus

How will I know

When the night is cold?

How will I see

When the path's untold?

How will I find

The truth in the grey?

How will I know if you've gone away?
