Transatlantic Landscape

I hear the legions draw behind me And I know I promised not to dwell But I thought the rapture here, was over And we had fought our way through hell We bundled up all we took for granted And made our way across the sea Our transatlantic landscape A passage far from all we'd seen Oh dear, more words from our dearly departed And after all this distance put between I try my best to share the clearest answer Hoping one day you'll see what it means I hear the echo in the song the ocean sings The stirring of a deeper shade of blue Tomorrow will be just the same We'll start by stealing all the daylight to be won Drifting further from what had become I hear the echo in the song the ocean sings The stirring of a deeper shade of blue Tomorrow will be just the same We'll start by stealing all the daylight to be won Drifting further from what had become Yes, I see you, but do I know what's real I can't close my eyes to what the light reveals Drawing closer, you smile with open arms And say you'll take me far From a world of harm
