lyrics
There's a bright light shining
through the dark night blinding
It's a white hot spotlight from some source unknown
It's like a freight train coming
through the cold rain running
down the mountainside and you'll find me there
It's a warning from the wiser ones
that we must keep on gaurd
Boulders tumbling down the mountainside
and we know where they will fall
No rain will fall and the wind won't blow
where the trees stand tall and diffuse the glow
I plan to sail away
and my friends intend to accompany
A departure from the way we know
It's time to climb on board
so rig the sails and cast the ties aside
Destination Unknown!!
Pitching forward through high seas toward new destiny
I couldn't have answered if you asked where I would be
Miles away from yesterday
Seas are black and skies are grey
Yet our spirit is soaring higher day by day
Yeah, our spirits are soaring higher day by day
Thunderheads loom over violent seas
I see dry land... but only in my dreams
There's no turning around
cast away from our past until our future be found
We won't be stopping till the anchor is dropping....
and our feet meet earth!
The storm subsides and we end the tour
Now we've found new land and proceed onshore
The journey has now come to pass
And it feels so good to be here at last!
through the dark night blinding
It's a white hot spotlight from some source unknown
It's like a freight train coming
through the cold rain running
down the mountainside and you'll find me there
It's a warning from the wiser ones
that we must keep on gaurd
Boulders tumbling down the mountainside
and we know where they will fall
No rain will fall and the wind won't blow
where the trees stand tall and diffuse the glow
I plan to sail away
and my friends intend to accompany
A departure from the way we know
It's time to climb on board
so rig the sails and cast the ties aside
Destination Unknown!!
Pitching forward through high seas toward new destiny
I couldn't have answered if you asked where I would be
Miles away from yesterday
Seas are black and skies are grey
Yet our spirit is soaring higher day by day
Yeah, our spirits are soaring higher day by day
Thunderheads loom over violent seas
I see dry land... but only in my dreams
There's no turning around
cast away from our past until our future be found
We won't be stopping till the anchor is dropping....
and our feet meet earth!
The storm subsides and we end the tour
Now we've found new land and proceed onshore
The journey has now come to pass
And it feels so good to be here at last!
