Across The Frozen Ocean

The vast abyss surrounding future undefined
Trapped in the tempest and ravages of time
The distant glimmer of the dawn horizon calls
Caressed by the ocean the winter sun is born

And with my waking eyes I see the distant shores of home
And in my dreams I see the shores of home

I’m drifting away like a fading memory
[At the mercy of the winter so cold]
Lost where only waves will bury me
[Icy fingers clutch to the soul]
I long for the times when stars cascade
From the heavens and into the sea
[Into the sea]
For that is the moment
That is the moment when I bring home back to me

Born of the tide take the wind in our stride
As the depths beckon below
Sons of the waves at the prow as it sways
‘Cross the frozen ocean we go

Sleep soothes with hollow words
While waking mocks with distain
Time and tide wait for no man
But the embrace of stars remain
