Those You've Known (Original Broadway Cast Recording/2006)

Those you've known

And lost still walk behind you

All alone

They linger 'til they find you

Without them

The world grows dark around you

And nothing is the same until you know that they have found you

Those you've pained

May carry that still with them

All the same

They whisper, "All forgiven"

Still your heart says

The shadows bring the starlight

And everything you've ever been is still there in the dark night

Though you know

You've left them far behind (when the northern wind blows)

You walk on by yourself, and not with them (the sorrows, your heart holds)

Still you know

They will fill your heart and mind (there are those who still know)

When they say there's a way through this (they're still home)

We're still home

Those you've known

And lost still walk behind you

All alone

Their song still seems to find you

They call you, as if you knew their longing

They whistle through the lonely wind, the long blue shadows falling

All alone, but still I hear their yearning

Through the dark, the moon, alone there, burning

The stars, too, they tell of spring returning

And summer with another wind that no one yet has known

Though you know (they call me)

There's so much more to find (when the northern wind blows) (through all things)

(Night's falling) (the sorrows) another dream, another love you'll hold

(But somehow, on I go) your heart's known, I believe

Still you know (you watch me)

To trust your own true mind (just watch me)

(I'm calling) (they're still home) on your way you are not alone

From longing (we're still home)

Now they'll walk on my arm through the distant night

And I won't let them stray from my heart

Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light

I will read all their dreams to the stars

I'll walk now with them

I'll call on their names
