Every living moment streams away, endless Departing, flowing, unable to find hold To be lost somewhere amongst the fall To rest in a lifeless still tranquillity ♪ These ceaseless waves keep on seeking the shore But wither from reach as all times before ♪ Yet these waves keep on seeking that shore Building to one, the approach you've seen To carry away, away, somewhere unknown Somewhere unknown, and so far from here ♪ I heard you say The light of day is fading A darkened sky gathers Must it lead so far away A voice is calling Its sound unheard To face the sea of departure Must it lead so far away ♪ Cast unto the distant winds Upon dead sea tranquillity But to grasp once more that fading shoreline Why must it lead so far away So far from here So far from here
