Carried by the Light

There's thunderclouds ahead

and peril on the shore

it takes a bell to wake the dead

so ring it hard once more

we swore to put things right

by the shadow of a lover's moon

then you have me back my sight

and not a moment too soon

this ain't no Lord's Day journey

there's no treasure or golden prize

I'm on the road to ruin

carried by the light in your eyes

black seas pitch and toss

til you're unsteady on your feet

when they raise that fiery cross

together we'll share the heat

there's terror in the sky

the fury never stops

you carry me

we'll chart a steady course

no tears or remorse

you carry me

there's thunder in my head

the coast is ironbound

now I remember what you said

it's like a hammer comin' down
