Kings of the land are weak before the seas
(And rising storms)
Wisdom can fade and towers fall
(Words can be cast out)
(Ooh) We look at the same stars
Walk the same paths (Ooh)
Leave only a trace
And just for a while
We wait for the ebbing tide
And try to make for common ground
Ahead of the dying light
We look to find a way back home
(Ooh) Out on the edge
Seeking a path (Ooh)
There are no gods here
Only us
Fly before the storm
Racing for the shore
No safe harbour near
Nowhere left to hide
Find a course to take them home
Work together
Stand together
Not alone
They are not alone, no
Old man of the sea
Rising from the deep
Summoning the waves
Calling out their names
Running from an angry god
Lead them home
Bring them home
They are not alone
Not alone
At a place where the waves meet the shore
Raise a tower
And send light over the sea
Mark the land with unshakable spires
Make a harbour for travellers and for strangers
Keepers of the light
Reach far into the night
For those who sail the seas
In peril on the tides
Voyagers escaping storms
Beacons call to bring them home
They are not alone
Not alone
At a place where the waves meet the shore
Raise a giant and send light over the sea
Mark the land with unshakable spires
Make a harbour for travellers and for strangers
We made the land our common ground
We made the sea our common ground
As we stand together
Side by side
Turn our faces to the skies
One day we take ship to the stars
One day we take ship to the stars
