Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
My true given name
I see my footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that yesterday?
Or only a moment ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
The past gives way
To a cold winter field
With ground below
Hard as steel
Beyond the hill
A distant song
But that hill
Keeps going on and on
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Swan boats in daisy chains
Can't seem to recall
Any given name
I see the footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that only a moment?
Or many years ago?
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Can't seem to recall
My true given name
I see my footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that yesterday?
Or only a moment ago?
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
To a cold winter field
With ground below
Hard as steel
Beyond the hill
A distant song
But that hill
Keeps going on and on
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold
Can't seem to recall
Any given name
I see the footprints
How they come, how they go
Was that only a moment?
Or many years ago?
I've gone cold
My heart has gone
I've gone cold

To me, the song represents the years wasted on hunting for something "meaningful". But so many years without success brought us to the point where we cannot realize we got it. "Beyond the hill A distant song But that hill Keeps going on and on" represent something that we are "working" for to get it, but goalpost moves all the time. And as time moves on, we get colder and colder to everything that surrounds us.
