By Starlight Drifting West
From On the Advent of a Dream
By Starlight Drifting West
Lyrics
Pulled the anchor, set the sails Ocean whispers, moonlight pales Stars are maps, but none I know Tides are pulling, let me go
No lantern guides, no beacon bright Only waves and wind tonight
By starlight, drifting west Approaching shadows, dispossessed A course uncharted, life's a test By starlight, drifting west
Horizon fades, the past won't speak The sky is calm, the depths run deep One wrong turn, the rocks below But where they are, I'll never know
No lantern guides, no beacon bright Only waves and wind tonight
By starlight, drifting west Approaching shadows, dispossessed A course uncharted, life's a test By starlight, drifting west
What waits beyond, a dream, a fall A whispered name I can't recall The stars will shine, the tide won't stay But either way, I drift away
By starlight, drifting west Lost in longing, lost at best No horizon, no regrets By starlight, drifting west
No lantern guides, no beacon bright Only waves and wind tonight…
