With dreams distilled from ancient fruits I washed upon the shores Of distant lands with birds and plants No eyes had seen before I crawled into a mighty cave Sought shelter from the storm And through the night your shining light My weary soul kept warm When morning came beyond the pale Still stood your silhouette Upon the sky like ocean high An island you were yet Away from here This cage of fear To starry skies below But in my constant solitude I realized like you And on my own I ventured forth To seek what faith may bring A strange new land beyond the sand That bled eternal spring And such strange creatures I did see That soon my mind did flow Away from here This cage of fear To starry skies below But in my constant solitude I realized like you I am an island In a sea of never-ending blue The sun may shine on both of us And lift our spirits high But the moon is like an island In the sea of the sky
