Cast Away

I cast away from stony ground
I cast away the life I'd found
I didn't know what I would chance upon
There was light behind but darkness drew me on

I set my sail on the open sea
The emptiness surrounded me
I went from place to place till the past I knew was gone
Had a friendly face but still my sword was drawn
On and on
Cause I saw new life in the distance
So I traveled on
Down a road of hope and memory with no resistance
And I felt withdrawn
Like a child without a smile I'm moving on
On to another dawn

Alone in shadows of the night
The stars above my only light
I turned my face to meet the rising sun
A dying man whose life had just begun

A thousand miles of ocean blue
But still my heart remembered you
I didn't know how long I would hold on
Just went from place to place till the past I knew was gone
On and on
Cause I saw new life in the distance
So I traveled on
Down a road of hope and memory with no resistance
So I traveled on

Though my heart held on
I knew the sweetness of the olden days was gone
