The Havens Grey

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

There is no road to bear me from my sorrow

No healing that is deeper than this hurt

My heart is gone away across the water

To the bright, undying shores beyond the world

When I sail from havens grey

Caught up on the wind and blown away

I will close my eyes on the Shadowlands

And bid goodbye to all my friends

The parting is the price, it is the price that I must pay

To sail beyond the arms of the havens grey

And even though you know your heart is breaking

For a little longer still you must be whole

To love the life that's given for the taking

And to give the love the living's given for

And let it lead you to those shores

When you sail from havens grey

Caught up on the wind and blown away

Close your eyes on the Shadowlands

And bid goodbye to all your friends

And sail from havens grey

Caught up on the wind and blown away

You'll bid goodbye to all your friends

And close your eyes on the shadowlands

I know you will open them again in the endless day

Of a love that dawns beyond the havens grey

So follow the road through the rain

Down from the door where it began

Out of the rain, into the sun

Follow it on and on and on

Keep to the road through the rain

Is there a there and back again?

Out of the rain, into the sun

Follow it on and on and on

Follow it on and on and on

Follow it on and on and on and on

The parting is the price, it is the price that I must pay

To harbor far beyond the havens grey
