The Light & The Sea Lyrics

Setting out upon the waves
In darkness and upheaval
I was told that I alone
Would not know good and evil

Oh, but in time
But oh, in time

It came to me that
As my ship would fall and rise
I could turn and lift my eyes
To the light, a distant light

And there will always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me

And as the days went by
I turned my wheel towards the thunder
Taking on a challenge
That I knew could take me under

Oh, and it took me down
And oh, it took me down
And It came to me

As I cursed the stem and sail
And called it fate that I should fail
There is a light, there is a light

And there will always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me

And it all comes down, down to me
To feel the presence of my soul
Amidst the torrents and the cold
Of the sea

And there will always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me
