The Promise

The way the moon

Bends down to light

The sea

And catches hold

Of mountains strong

They stand beside me

And all that I am

They have written in

My soul

I've made a promise

To never lose sight

Of the dream

That leads me home

And this much I know

Time like a river

Sends me away

But here on these shores

My heart remains

From these shores I came

A tender wind

That reaches through

The hills

And sends me on

Through joy and pain

It breathes within me

And all that I am

It has written in

My soul

I've made a promise

To never lose sight

Of the dream

That leads me home

And this much I know

And this much I know
