Burning Bright

They stole you far away to the end of the sea
From rib and clay my lantern and key

Home is the narrow and wide reaches of our shared scars
On tomorrow's horizon I wait to believe I choose to see
When the sun is down
Show me how to reflect like the moon
The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright
Safe years behind me burn
I know now I am not alone
You've always found me in the deep of night
I could die well here, before morning comes
Cause I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes

We spoke of lovely things with guards not listening
We made plans to escape like in the movies
Confiding in scripts kindling in secret
Our home discrete in captors' keep
In quiet still small moments
Wait till they leave us alone and don't look back (don't look back)
Cross with me over the threshold
My inimitable half
In quiet still small moments I hear you breathe
And I remember I am alive
I'm alive, I found you under distant stars
distant stars
You saw me through my deepest dark

(I can see all the lights of the sun...)

I know now I am not alone
You've always found me in the deep of night
I could die well here, before morning comes
Cause I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes

Home is the narrow and wide reaches of our shared scars
On tomorrow's horizon I can see all the lights of the sun in your eyes
Sun in your eyes
The key is in my hands and I choose to burn bright
Safe years behind me burn bright
