From the recording The Black Rose
Lyrics
Every sentence, cherished or wasted
Hid a truth even if it was a lie
And the night it brought us comfort
But then it went and passed us by
But nothing every really dies
So all that was you can feel its love right now
Every book and every poem
Hid a secret about what it might mean
Here we are under ancient stars
Truth is written in the tides of the ocean
We’re alive let’s feel every part
A part of it you can’t separate is right now
Oh the moon, it just might be our father
Distant and round, I can see it if you can
Here we are, in the weight of a moment
Wondering what came before
And the dead and the lives they lived
Crafted the tapestry that gives us warmth right now
And the tears and the blood they bled
Gives us the oceans we so blindly swim in
And the love and the hope they shared
Gives us faith when life become so abstract
And the child I see in your eyes
Reminds me innocent is what we are
Here we are under ancient stars
Truth is written in the tides of the ocean
We’re alive let’s feel every part
A part of it you can’t separate is right now
Oh the moon, it just might be our father
Distant and round, I can see it if you can
Here we are, in the weight of a moment
Wondering what came before
Wondering what came before
