lyrics
long ago we sailed the open seas
guided by the light of the heavenlies
i can hear them calling out to me
lord i know my heart's a heavy stone
weathered by the beating of the shore
tethered to an ever sinking hope
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I remember what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
no turning around no giving in
weightless as a bird
leave your worries here
take me at my word
oh there's nothing left to fear
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I won’t forget what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
i’m willing to run i’m willing to wait
no matter the price i’m willing to pay
no turning around no giving in
un diha siempre mansuettu hit (one day we will be free)
manhåhanao hit para i tasi (we’re going to sea)
guided by the light of the heavenlies
i can hear them calling out to me
lord i know my heart's a heavy stone
weathered by the beating of the shore
tethered to an ever sinking hope
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I remember what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
no turning around no giving in
weightless as a bird
leave your worries here
take me at my word
oh there's nothing left to fear
well the road is long
and there are many miles ahead
and the moon is high
but I won’t forget what you said
i’m giving it time i’m giving it faith
i’m giving it more than i ever did take
i’m willing to run i’m willing to wait
no matter the price i’m willing to pay
no turning around no giving in
un diha siempre mansuettu hit (one day we will be free)
manhåhanao hit para i tasi (we’re going to sea)
