if you
were to ask us now love
to say
where we were
I'd say like the rippling sea
and the west coast of Clare
the division twixt you and me

if you
were to ask
us now love
to say what we were
I'd say that like ashes gone out
we search for what was
yet to be

if you
were to press us now love
to say why we were
like ashes
neath the rippling sea
I'd say
that's the difference
twixt you
and me
