Keith Johns - Up and Away lyrics

Artist: Keith Johns

album: Grateful Fool


I woke from the storm
Drenched and ragged on the shore
Stranded next to me, an angel carved of ivory
I strung it around my neck
And swore that I'd protect it from harm
Ageless, time went by
Child of the sun and tide
Voices sang to me, calling me across the sea
They begged me to journey home
For a moment they sounded so close
My wife, my son, my ghost
But the tempest sunk the raft I strung
And I was flung headfirst into the sea
And all was lost until you caught
Upon some wood and carried me
Over the waves, you saved me
And you pulled me to the sand and helped me stand
I wasn't frightened as you burned
The purest white, and split the night in two
I knew I had returned
That I belonged with my angel all along
Well I woke, warm and safe
My smiling angel, her tireless grace
Dancing as she blazed, I couldn't move or look away
She beckoned and called my name
And fervent, I drew towards the flame
No tubes, no beeps, no pain
She held me by the head, a dazzling red
And I could see her as she was
A golden guide, who raised her eyes
Shattered the sky carried us
Over the waves,
Up and away.
