valediction

• müzik tarihinin gizli melankolik prog rock gruplarından biri olan wishbone ash'in 1971 tarihli pilgrimage albümünün sondan bir önceki parçası. gerçi her progressive rock grubu aslında biraz özünde melankoliktir. (bkz: sözlerini de yazayım tam olsun)
  
  breathing is a sin, they say
  loneliness is the price to pay
  sad for you, i go once more
  ı'll dry my eyes on a distant shore
  
  no way of freezing your rising tide
  no way of keeping you by my side
  like a bird, i'll fly high
  guarding over this love of mine
  
  a room of trust
  a room of fears
  a room of laughter with a few sweet tears
  there we lay that sunny dawn
  calm and helpless as it lingers on
  
  no way of breaking the march of time
  no way of keeping our love sublime
  like a bird, i'll fly high
  guarding over this love of mine
  
  many times we hurry by
  lose our problems in a knowing smile
  many days were swept along
  left unnoticed as our love grew strong
  
  believing each of us would always know
  believing one of us would never go
  like a bird, i'll fly high
  watching over this love of mine
