Into the arc we climbed
Away from an unresolved past
Sails taut, across
That unknown future vast
Pushed along by gentle
Air, light and waves
Before we walked off our dreams
We thought of you
And everything at once
Then, like a wave of regret
Memory of verses sung
A flood to start the day
But though then heed
The great hand
Who pulled us up
From the deepest depths
Of an ocean of longing,
And charged us to take
Certain steps forward
Now, just the lightest self
Total freedom towards death
Away from an unresolved past
Sails taut, across
That unknown future vast
Pushed along by gentle
Air, light and waves
Before we walked off our dreams
We thought of you
And everything at once
Then, like a wave of regret
Memory of verses sung
A flood to start the day
But though then heed
The great hand
Who pulled us up
From the deepest depths
Of an ocean of longing,
And charged us to take
Certain steps forward
Now, just the lightest self
Total freedom towards death
