Once upon a memory of days forever gone
As free as the moments could be
My wonders of day and night danced around the fire
In yearning for a dream to believe
There came forth a journeyman wearied by the wind
He said forgive son, forget and let live
For life can be boundless, no matter who you are
Don't let it end before it begins
But I've faltered and wonder
If I can brave the trials by fire
Is there hope for me?
He said Lo, be mindful and see
When the sun rises in the heavens
When the moon falls into the stars
There's a light for us blinding, ever reminding
Guiding our way from afar"
Mile after mile, on an endless promenade
For purpose we will search far and wide
Through shadows, love and heartache
This road has often lead
A never-ending turn of the tides
See the glimmer and the glint of this worldly masquerade
A life forsaken for the gain of a few
There's a promise of the dreamers, a world of hope and chance
Beyond all that we ever knew
Still I falter and wonder
Why I can can go the distance no longer
What is meant to be?
But his words I still believe
When the sun rises in the heavens
When the moon falls into the stars
There's a light for us blinding, ever reminding
Guiding our way from afar
See the shadows lost in the moonlight
Feel the fire ignite once again
In the skies burn the embers, now and forever
Lighting the path for all men
Alone with the dark ever rising
And all I ever had far behind me
With heart mind and resolute, I will follow you
Now 'til the end of all time
When the sun rises in the heavens
When the moon falls into the stars
When the sun rises in the heavens
When the moon falls into the stars
There's a light for us blinding, ever reminding
Guiding our way from afar
Light the darkness for all eternity
Gone is sadness now and for all to see
In the skies burn the embers, now and forever
Stand before a brave new world
And heed these words through the sands of time
Raise high your head for you will find your way
