Distant Lights - Seven Spires

The ocean took me in its arms and cradled me

Held my heart so gently, calmed my soul, it seems

That I may never make my last return

Well, perhaps the night is where I’m meant to be

So cold and yet so warm

Numb and far away from harm

Distant lights a dancing glow so far from me

Could you forgive me, all I’ve said and done you wrong

Though I’m blind, beneath the surface I can see

A glow, though I cannot be sure it’s you

Another time I would have strayed and let you

Burn my wings and let me fall

I’d worship you and give you all of me

I would have followed you wherever you’d lead

I will pledge my final breath to your name

Here at the end of my days

Pray you won’t deny my chance to repay

Another time, another life

Another night the ocean was an emerald sea

That glitters in my mind from time to time

It’s an old wound that remains a distant memory

Though not a day goes by that I don’t think of

What has come to pass and how

A flame should never burn this long

And mine was gone the moment that I kissed these waves
