Album: My Siren Song

A majestic voyage through winter waters
Begins a search for the treasure of their fathers
Sparkling eyes twinkle with what they might find
The same eyes swim in tears for those left behind

Icy currents, bitter swells carry youthful dreams
Crashing water cannot muffle eager screams
The heavens sing as the waves dance the sea
A thousand hopes wait for the chance to be free

But those who stayed on shore
Can only peer at distant skies
Only black linings in silver clouds
Can be seen by tragic eyes

Then the ship fades in a mist of green and gold
Leaving only a story waiting to unfold
And on the shore stand those too sad, too weak
To risk it all for what the others seek

But those who stayed on shore
Can only peer at distant skies
Only black linings in silver clouds
Can be seen by tragic eyes

Then the ship sails over aqua and white dunes
To the melody of the angels tunes
And buried hopes sprout tiny wings
As the sailors allow themselves a moment to believe

But those who stayed on shore
Can only peer at distant skies
Only black linings in silver clouds
Can be seen by tragic eyes
