Pathway in the Sky

The boat is on the beach
And the tide is coming in
Soon you're out of reach
Guess your journey will begin
Life is like a castle in the sand
Takes a wave to fully understand

I see you everywhere I go
In a crystal made of snow
In a cloud that's drifting by
On a pathway in the sky
Now you're free and you can fly

So thank you for the days
Those I do and don't remember
Thank you for your ways
You're still glowing like an ember
Lighting up the darkness like a star
That's the one you were and you still are

I see you like I used to do
I see the one that I once knew
In a cloud that's drifting by
On a pathway in the sky
Now you're free and you can fly

The boat is on the beach
And the tide is coming in
Soon you're out of reach
Guess your journey will begin
Out to the horizon and beyond
Someone said you lost
I'd say you won

I hear you in the local stores
In a laugh that sounds like yours
In a poem that I heard
Maybe just a single word
That is free just like a bird

I see you everywhere I go
In a crystal made of snow
In a cloud that's drifting by
On a pathway in the sky
Now you're free and you can fly
