Well it only took a question To bring tears to her eyes And the gates they slipped Only to reveal the flood that lay inside She's doing her best to stay composed While I think to myself It's been a long winter She tells me of life in a faded land How her folks are getting old On the phone their voice sounds tired They're disappointed she ain't home Sonja, you made me feel What I'd been missing for so long And you don't even know Your tears are a song She folds away a young mans clothes
And the verses they roll on As the memories become visions That in turn will keep her strong Sonja, you made me feel What I'd been missing for so long And you don't even know Your tears are a song You were needed now More than ever Sing to me, my simple queen A song of how I used to be Hmm Have you come to wash away these aimless melodies Sing to me oh a song of how I used to be Do I remember how to dream like you, honestly Hmm
