lyrics

The Light & the Sea

The wind on the water
This sea is dark as wine
Did you get my letter?
Restlessly passing the time
All I want is redemption
To make this right and new
This light burns inside of me
A silver fire for you

When daylight fades and these
Fears rush in
I need your grace
You’re whispering

Don’t forget in the darkness
What you found in the light
This candle is burning down
On this wind-blown night
Don’t forget in the darkness
What you found in the light
This candle is burning down
Don’t leave me alone in the night

Did I hear you speak to me
Or was it only a dream?
The stars flutter up in the sky
Of this mystery
All I want is redemption
Overstepping this line in the sand
This light burns inside of me
As you reach for my hand

The daylight fades and these
Fears rush in
I need your grace
You’re whispering
