Nostargic

(SOCAN ISWC T3110485757)

Out over the wing past the port-side light
My thoughts dive, pitch, roll, and yaw

Ten km below, our world's hidden from sight
Here we hang, I'm suspended in awe

Piercing through the black, trickle stories and songs
Truths so old, we cannot comprehend

They propagate out, ever forward and strong
Though their sources have met their ends

Once a strong and brilliant light
Glowing in your eyes
What remains I see the odd night
Twinkling in the sky

I stood in a field on a new moon night
Felt your hand run through my hair

Could I be made out under heavenly light
Were you reaching to me from somewhere?

Whispers of old times on the voice of a breeze
Getting lost in a familiar scene

The lights that linger above mountains and trees
Are the guiding lights of my dreams

Once a strong and brilliant light
Universe in your eye
I go back in time the odd night
Blinking at the sky

Once it was so crystal and stark
How our joy ran rife
If I could I'd find the old spark
Blow it back to life
Blow it back to life

Blow it back to life
Blow it back to life
Blow it back to life
