lyrics

The time has come to raise the anchor
From the sad harbour of the past
The time has come for me to thank her
I’m so glad I crossed her path

Setting sail under restless thunder
She was waving from the bay
The fires of autumn falling round her
As she turned and walked away

Some things come at a heavy cost
And it’s enough to break your heart
But everything you’ve ever loved and lost
Is shining in the dark like stars
Shining in the dark

There’s no beginning, no middle, no end
And I’m crossing open ground
I’d trade it all for a single friend
But there is no-one around

In the old days when they broke a vase
They’d patch it up with joins of gold
Don’t give up, don’t throw it all away
As long as she cracks, she holds

Some things come at a heavy cost
And it’s enough to break your heart
But everything you’ve ever loved and lost
Is shining in the dark like stars
Shining in the dark
