I've been away...

I've been away...but now I'm back
I had taken with me my sadness
but I left it there and brought only joy..
the sorrows I've left behind.

I saw misery like I've seen nowhere
yet I have heard the laughter of pure happiness
I've tasted the sweetest wine,
and swallowed the most bitter figs
I've been away but now I return.

And On my trip I saw what once was.
and too I've seen what could have been
but no matter what I couldn't see what will be
Yes I've been away but I came home

you see this trip cost me nothing,
Yet I gave up everything to go
it wasn't around the world,
not far or wide, just here close by
I've been away to see myself...
I went but now I'm Back.
