The Beacons Of Somewhere Sometime (Part IV: 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 safe and sound
Still hoping against hope
Still breathing life.

Everything seems 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.

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 it all go.
