So Begins the Task

And so begins the task
 I have dreaded the coming of for so long
 ♪
 I wait for the sun
 To remind my body it needs restin'
 
 And I must learn to live without you now
 I must learn to give only part, somehow
 ♪
 Camping on the edge of your city, I wait
 Hoping someday you might see beyond yourself
 The shadows on the ceiling
 Hard but not real
 Like the bars that cage you within yourself
 And I must learn to live without you now
 I must learn to give only part, somehow
 ♪
 And I must learn to without you now
 As I cannot learn to give only part, somehow
 ♪
 All of these cages must and shall be set aside
 They will only keep us from the knowing
 Actors and stages now fall before the truth
 And the love shared between remains growing
 And I must learn to live without you now
 As I cannot learn to give only part, somehow
