lyrics

Even when the sky is dark above the sea
the blue glows through and speaks to me
and if I round the bow of the ship
the moon will reach down and stir my lips

And I’ll be moved to acknowledge
the unending grace
which shapes the mountains
and the lines of my face

I pray that I may know that her light shines in me
as we float and we flow with the changing sea

I round the corner cold
and thinking of her light
the moon does hold me bold and full
wrapped up in her night

These glimpses guide me like a star
the depths of me do stir
I reach out far and grasp
at what I had thought to be sure

but love that’s gone is love that’s changed
and freedom’s in that shift
the best of what was still remains
the everlasting gift

I round the corner cold
and thinking of her light
the moon does hold me bold and full
wrapped up in her night

I round the corner cold
and thinking of her light

Even when the sky is dark above the sea
the Moon glows through and speaks to me

And if I round the corner cold
and thinking of her light
the moon will hold me bold and full
wrapped up in her night
