The Beacons Of Somewhere Sometime (Part 4: A Canopy Of Stars)

After the storm
How can we keep moving on
As weary as the sea
As tired as the mountains

But in the morning light
We are so surprised to see
Our flesh and bone still save and sound
Still hoping against hope
Still breathing life

Everything seemed lost
But voices in our memory

When a rainfall
Washes all away
All stories and all names
We must be holding ground

And the things that have remained
Must be enough to sustain
The splendor and the beauty
The remembrance of all moments
That we’ve shared, then lost in a storm

Yet you and I, we’re not the same
Anymore, not the same anymore

Because we live in the flicker
A moment carved into midnight darkness
Fleeting and bright

Because we live in the flicker
Beneath a canopy full of starlight
Feed my heart with memory and let me go

Because we live in the flicker
A moment carved into midnight darkness
Fleeting and bright

Because we live in the flicker
Beneath a canopy full of starlight
Feed my heart with memory
Let it all go
