lyrics

sometimes i see the future
& it looks alright
to a man who’s been waiting his
whole long life
to be returned to that land
it was north of somewhere
it was cold but oh so bright
& everyone was happy there
i’ve memorized every promise
that was gave on that night
we were told we’d have to go
& had better learn to travel
light
across a sea that would
disappear once we reached its
other shore
there we’d wear our hearts
inside no longer easy for us to
find
for we could not yet be beings
of light
& we were no longer men
like the ones who walked before
innocent of wrong or right
father oh now i know why you
moved so far away
but your poor mother she
waited for your return till her
last day
