Distant Shores Lyrics

You have taught me

Many melodies

To sing forth through my days

Vision wrought into

Reality

Sings a glorious praise

You have brought me

Aching memories

To relive through my days

You have taught me

Fleeting sympathy

With your tears and your prayers

Silent in heart

I walk alone

The seas will part

To guide me home

Averse in art

Of flesh and bone

I depart

To leave you dead and gone

Embrace the silence

Shadows have had their say

Streaks in the mirror

Had time to fade away

Songs whispered in your ear

Are finally yours to hear

You have sought me

Through adversity

To bring tears for your pain

Now I leave you

Crowned and cradled

Long may you reign

Tic tac toe

In the sands of yore

Write a name

On a distant shore

To The Sea of woe

Blood will flow

Winds will blow

And the waves will grow

For the setting sun

For the broken one

Cross the bones

And sticks and stones

And pray for rain

To wash the sin away

For the holy plight

For the dying

Light a spark

Dance in the dark

To the Eulogy of fear

And throw your

Arms to the sky

For the final flight

For all that you hold dear

Tic tac toe

In the sands of yore

Play the game

As you played before

For the ultimate prize

Tides will rise

And open your eyes
