lyrics

"Your fire beyond the islands
Is the morning of a dream
A burning boat sinking in my Ocean
A Candle in the Sea.
Guitars summon a memory
Of the way you made a music of the night
A line of lights floating in the distance
On the shoreline of my heart.
And who are you to bring me from a far land
Round the planet’s raging sphere?
And who am I to take you from your homeland
When so much would keep you here?
And who are all the strangers of tomorrow
To be now so ever dear?
When other ones we love are woven deeper
In our lives for all these years.

From the white stone upon these mountains
To the dark silk of the Grecian Sea
The ashes of your vision sailing southward
Passing islands to the East
And shining are the cities in the distance
That whispered I am free:
A burning boat sinking in the Ocean
Like a Candle in the Sea.

And who am I to say I’ve understood you
Or the lives along these piers?
And who are you to say you’ve understood me
From our laughter, storms and tears?
And who are they to count us in the centre
Of an Earth that Time would steer?
When all of us are lifted by the Ocean
To be loved for all these years."
