"The Homecoming" lyrics

"The Homecoming"

It's the way of a cosmic sailor, in a boat in the night
But the wolves are not scaring him, he's alright
Just the day, just the day away, I can feel it sometimes
But the wolves are not scaring me, I long for twilight

Then with the morning comes
The sun that finds them all, so divides the night, and they die
And with the morning sun
A lonely teardrop falls down from my eye, and I die

But where, where did all the cosmic sailors come from
Far away from across the sea
And where, where have all the cosmic sailors now gone
And the night that showed them all to me?

On the waves of this silver ocean, for a while there he smiles
As he sails with the other ones, the wind dies
So a cry, so a cry is calling, all the wolves among the night
As I sail with the other ones, I find them alright

Then with the morning comes
The sun that finds them all so divides the night, and they die
And with the morning sun
A lonely teardrop falls down from my eye, and I die

And I die...
