I have lost some familiar faces,
Some were taken and some departed,
I can't go back to the familiar places,
I die a little every day I live.

I'm in a world I don't belong,
I've got a home in the world to come.

Here in the wood between the worlds,
Here in the wood between the worlds.

I'm on the lookout for the hidden dangers,
The test and trials of this shadow land,
To tears and heartache I have been no stranger,
I die a little every day I live.

I'm in a place called "Here and There" on the border of far and near.

I cross the wild wood to my ever after,
(Here in the wood between the worlds)
Between the night and the endless day,
(Here in the wood between the worlds)

The smiles, the tears of boyhood years,
The cheerful hearts now broken,
The eyes that shone now dimmed and gone,
How long'
How long'

I'm in a world I don't belong,
I've got a home in the world to come.

I cross the wild wood to my ever after,
(Here in the wood between the worlds)
Between the night and the endless day.
(Here in the wood between the worlds)
