"I once was open"...

I once was open
And one with a travelling heart

(...)

We are the smile of light that brings them rain

In the half light
Where we both stand
In the half light
You saw me as I am

Jeff Buckley - 'Opened Once'

"Opened Once"

I once was open
And one with a travelling heart
I loved with disregard

Just like the fiction
Rushing in your riverbed
Arise like applause in my head

And in the half-light
Where we both stand
This is the half-light
See me as I am

Just like the ocean
Always in love with the moon
It's overflowing now
Inside you

We fly right over
The minds of so many in pain
We are the smile of light that brings them rain

In the half light
Where we both stand
In the half light
You saw me as I am

I am a railroad track abandoned
With the sunset
Forgetting
I ever happened
That I ever happened.
