Wool & WhispersThe Alchemist

[Verse 1] Four days until I see her, a smile that cuts the grey She talks of life inside the walls, where every day's the same I talk of distant mountains, adventures I might chase But her eyes, they hold a magic, that slows my restless pace. [Chorus] Wool and whispers, in the market square Trading stories, secrets in the air Her flowing hair, like midnight streams, Caught between two worlds, and chasing different dreams. [Verse 2] She asks me how I learned to read, in fields of green and gold I tell her sheep teach more than books, lessons brave and bold She wonders why a reader chooses life beneath the sun I mumble something, hesitate, the words won't freely run. [Chorus] Wool and whispers, in the market square Trading stories, secrets in the air Her flowing hair, like midnight streams, Caught between two worlds, and chasing different dreams. [Bridge] The desire to stay, to settle down, a feeling new and strong But the call of far horizons, still plays its haunting song. Bismillah, [In the name of God], I say a silent plea To find the strength to choose the path, that's truly meant for me. [Chorus] Wool and whispers, in the market square Trading stories, secrets in the air Her flowing hair, like midnight streams, Caught between two worlds, and chasing different dreams.
