Ian Perry - Shoreline Lyrics

Blue shadows at my window pane
As night comes swooping down
I gaze at the horizon as it stretches over town
And get lost in the distances
That roll on like my thoughts
To the places I would travel with my love

A night breeze blows in circles
Through the atmosphere
My eyes have seen the changes of another year;
Solitude and silence walk the spaces of my heart
Where these blues have made their new home
And loss has made its mark

And the words in my mind speak of far away, another life
When the love in our eyes was sweet, still felt good to me;
When the tides of emotion bore us on their waves
To some distant shoreline that grows fainter day by day

Which star amongst the billions can help me navigate
My way across this unknown world, which light illuminate
The places of my passing, the contents of my thoughts
Before weariness invades my bones and deep sleep finally calls?

Darkness and I fly above the town
To the edges of the ocean I am bound
To the edges of the solid earth I will travel
And above the waters I'll fly towards tomorrow
