I had a dream There was a storm And all the earth was without form The sun was cold The ether warm Pressure building left and right Timer ticking Just out of sight I’m taking shelter in the light Time takes its toll But in my soul I’m on a roll

I see you in the distance But I can't get there from here Hard to believe it's happening But my whole world's shrunken to All the ways I want you

I ran aground in a harbour town Lost the taste for being free Thank God He sent some gull-chased ship To carry me to sea

Maybe to those who love is given sight To pierce the wall of seeming night And know it pure beyond all imagining… Maybe to those who love it's given to hear Music too high for the human ear And clear as hydrogen to go singing

Anything can happen To put out the light Is it any wonder I don't want to say goodnight?

Passion runs deep, it's scary sometimes When it's larger than life or your peace of mind It's got me all the same And I'm not sorry that's true

Paradox and contrast Variety and change History repeats But it's never the same We've got this time We've got this rhythm Till the whole thing comes apart Like light through a prism And we dance, and we dance and we dance...

I ran aground in a harbour town Lost the taste for being free Thank God He sent some gull-chased ship To carry me to sea

Maybe to those who love it's given to hear Music too high for the human ear And clear as hydrogen to go singing

I've been in trouble but I'm okay Been through the wringer but I'm okay Walls are falling and I'm okay Under the mercy and I'm okay

Each one lost is everyone's loss you see Each one lost is a vital part of you and me

Big Circumstance comes looming Like a darkly roaring train Rushes like a sucking wound Across a winter plain Recognizing neither polished shine Nor spot nor stain And wherever you are on the compass rose You'll never be again

Got a woman I love and she loves me And we live on a piece of land I never know quite how to measure these things But I guess I'm a happy man Great big love Sweeping across the sky

First Mass rings through smoke and gas Day flowers out of the night Creatures of the dark in disarray Fall before the morning light

Sometimes you can hear the Spirit whispering to you But if God stays silent, what else can you do? Except listen to the silence...

Don't tell me there is no mystery Mystery Mystery And don't tell me there is no mystery It overflows my cup

Ancient and always The wheel's ever whirling Today I'm riding, tomorrow I walk Step through forever into this very moment The heart is pumping and the heart rocks It's my beat In my new town

Through the seasons and through the seas The light goes on forever Through the burning and the seeding Through the joining and the parting The light goes on forever

I picture us in this light Friendship a fine silver web Stretched across golden smoky haze And this is simple And this is grace
