Lyrics
Canvases
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.
Lost its way so high
Knocked from the night sky
She fell to the earth to rise
'Come back home' the night sang
The night sang, 'Come back home'
Alone in the mist (Alone in the mist)
Lit by her glow
She found her way in the snow
A voice whispered just 'Let go"
To follow me into the sea
Through forests and trails
Through hills and through gales'
The Babylon
Outward it shone
There's a new life (There's a new life)
And I can't think twice (And I can't think twice)
And nothing else
Can seem to tell fact from fiction (fiction)
I can't seem to
Break away
Draw your eyes to the canvas skies
The setting sun should not glow upon (Not glow upon)
The seeds that we sow
Draw your eyes to the canvas skies
The setting sun should not glow upon (Not glow upon)
The seeds that we sow
Never the one to know
Never the one to know
She seems to follow the straightest line
So place it between the deepest divide
This beauty that's surrounding me
Your convalescent light will see
It's keeping me warm at night
Oh won't you shine so bright
Shine so bright for me
For I am struggling
Struggling to see
Now you're shining so bright
Now you're shining so
Draw your eyes to the canvas skies
The setting sun should not glow upon (not glow upon)
The seeds that we sow
Draw your eyes to the canvas skies
The setting sun should not glow upon (not glow upon)
The seeds that we sow
Impending within our nature to
Reserve the right
To hold on to
The Moon has said (The Moon has said)
Come back to bed (Come back to bed)
Amongst the stars (Amongst the stars)
A journey not so far
The Moon has said
Come back to bed
Amongst the stars
A journey not so far
I seek a star
That fell not far
I seek a star
That fell not far
I seek a star (I)
That fell not far (Seek)
I seek a star (A)
That fell not far (Star)
