The girl with ribbons in her hair
She makes the darkness disappear
She calls you home without a sound
Not all is lost, what is not found
You wore the weight upon my chest
Carried the burden on my neck
You were meant to be one and whole
To raise your children and watch them grow
But I must go
I can't stay here
I'll cross the sea
I'll cross the sea
I bear wounds that will not heal
I've been changed by tooth, sting, and steel
The scars on my skin will not fade
I won't forget the darkness I'm afraid
There was once magic in this place
But like my youth it has been erased
Yet I agree it has been saved
Just not for me I'm pained to say
I am leaving today
I can't stay here
I'll cross the sea
I'll cross the sea
Valinor calls me
Across the sea
Across the sea
Now is the hour we must part
Go in peace and with me in your heart
That is all that I can say
Perhaps we will meet again someday
Hopefully
I can't stay here
I'll cross the sea
I'll cross the sea
Valinor calls me
Across the sea
Across the sea
