Track rating :  80 / 100 Votes :  1 [ ]
A lady with a violin
playing to the seals.
Hearken to the sound of calling.

Come to me...

Who tied my hands to the wheel?
The zodiac turns over me.
Somewhere there my fate revealed,
I hear but how will I see.

Come to me...

I tied myself to the wheel!
The winds talk to my sails, not me.
Somewhere there my fate revealed,
I hear but how will I see.
