[Part One - On The Bank] We stepped into the darkness Headed for the heights Leaving behind a pool of friendly light Far off in the distance Crowned with glowing red On and off and on again A beacon fire A warning glow We climb the bank And see the future Under star and moonlight We must let this go The two of us It's past now Gone now
[Part Two - Homeground] On the streets far below Car lights dance as workers journey home One last time we sat alone Words unsaid remain unspoken
That's how things are That's how it goes I stand my own ground But the Earth spins fast
Further on Further out The name I carry Turned to smoke and mirrors
That's how things are That's how it goes I stand my own ground But the Earth spins fast Here come the years Of loss and of tears England is a sea Of clouds these days
It's been a long journey home If I don't go back again A piece of my heart Will stay there forever Here in the fading light I walk beneath the mast I climb up high to see the past
[Part Three - On The Mast] A sunburst breaks through the clouds For a moment The air is still And I take in the view I am lost up here I am bruised and broken Hold my hand, dear Don't let go
You were there as if I were your own It was more than enough It was more than I could hope for A constellation of stars Takes form We look for shapes We draw in straight lines And make things joined So far apart Yet held ever closer With too much to bear We take some time out And come up for air
[Part Four - The Devil's Dressing Room] [instrumental]
[Part Five - On The Hillside] In the end we are alone One last day then all is gone One long summer love burned bright But time waits in the wings
Head out at sunset Stars are coming out The night filled with wonder Beauty and magic Here on the hillside The moon is rising Stars are shining Out there is everything that's ever been In a cloud of blossom A mist of snowdrops Winter fades to a memory And the birds on the wire Take flight to the distance Find a way that leads back home againTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
