As Far As Starlight

Sunrise turns into sundown
Midnight into dawn
We walk awake through the daydream to which we belong

Rivers of time never go slow
Glittering down below
We lose all we have to find more behind the lost secret door

Desire lasts not forever
Love looses in dreams
While we blindfolded go together
Seeing no road running before us

Before it is gone
I want to see fire in your eyes
Before it is all done
I want to live a moment inside your heart
With a silent memory
You will forever dwell in me

After the lifetime adventure we all seek our home
The place to return
Dreaming of clear blue sky as long as we hope
To believe bearing our living
As long as we live

You believe all the tales as they’re all true
Belonging to all grey old days
Wherever I go I hear the one only tune

As far as we live I hear the only one tune
Still playing within for a story I’ve lost
Or haven’t yet found beyond the cliff sharp shore
Still I follow sweet call of your flute

Wherever I go
Wherever I long
I will forever belong to the shores
Taking out the breath with their dark majesty
Castaway horizon lullaby with a withering memory

As far as we are
Walking in the starlight in another world
The one to which we both do belong
