lyrics

On the stone steps outside the seminary, you showed me the dangers that this world holds
With each one that passed us we drew in closer
I stopped for fear of being too bold

Though I had wandered, I was not quite lost
The words on your collar, they told me the same thing
That I had once known, that I had once lost

As the night drew onward you showed me the photographs reproduced flawlessly by your hand
You told me your fears, though I did not ask you
You told me secrets about my friends

Though I had wondered, I could not ask
Though you had not known me, you had opened
I stopped to think whether I could back

Though I had wandered, I was not quite lost
The words on your collar, they told me the same thing
That I had once known, that I had once lost
