"All Across The Havens" lyrics
"All Across The Havens"
The sister of sunlight
Comes to my lonely life
Bearing the crosses I hung
I hung on my lonely wife
And the anchor told me
If I prayed by the river
That the sweet sound of water
Would always go with her
All across the havens
To the waterfall
They told me I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls
But how on earth in this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains?
For all across the havens
I must stumble, locked in chains
Then the mother of mercy
Showed me her stable
And told me you would be safe
Safe in her cradle
And the waterfall opened
And the water withdrew
Leaving me standing
On a road leading through
All across the havens
To the waterfall
They told me that I would meet her there
Inside those icy walls
But how on earth in this universe
Can they forgive me of my pains?
For all across the havens
I must stumble, locked in chains

Not knowing where I was going
How near or how far
Through years of light, lands of future and past
Until the heavenly gates

I'm so alone and so blue
My friends have all gone away
Their friendliness too
It was I on my own
With no need to belong
And I wanted to die
That's when you came along
And thank you for...

Uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is alright
