the lost estate

For three days I wandered, defeated, asunder
In winter abundant, I lost the path to Sainte-Agathe
And finding my footfall, I tripped on a fable
A cage for an angel and found my fate in this domain
Now I'm home...
Why don't you ask me to stay?
I want nobody but you
Don't let this hour get in the way
I need asylum, you need asylum too
For three days I haunted a line through a forest
The bread crumbs, they vanished
And left me here in winter reign
Now I'm home.. .
Why don't you ask me to stay?
I want nobody but you
Don't let this hour get in the way
I need asylum, you need asylum too

Now, it's too far to make it home
Now, it's too far to make it home
Why don't you ask me to stay?
