lyrics

Waking to find
your hand in mine.
A dream made real,
fates intertwined.

Walk through the fields and then
together we ascend.
Taking to flight
in radiant light.

Stars scatter through the sky as light-years pass us by.
We’re hurtling through space now as we fly.
As dreamscapes multiply and dark gives way to light,
what new worlds lie beyond the open sky?

Here, staring into the dark, dive deep into the unknown.
Into this danger embarked, left our old world behind.
Starflight: a dream or the truth? Crossing far beyond the illusion,
flying further into the skies, past the gates of somnolence.

Why do we strive to stay more than alive?
What is this drive to reach beyond the skies?

Seeking the source of these thoughts, plagued by answerless questions.
Search for the worth of all dreams, striving onward.
Still I feel the burden of hope, reminded of a home yet unknown,
even as our journey unfolds, hoping one day all will be resolved.

Why do we strive to stay more than alive?
What is this drive to reach beyond the skies?

Stars scatter through the sky as light-years pass us by.
We’re hurtling through space now as we fly.
As dreamscapes multiply and dark gives way to light,
I hope that someday we will arrive.

One day answers yet may come,
the pieces falling into place.
Reaching far beyond the stars,
grabbing ahold of eternity.
Still I feel the burden of hope,
reminded of a home yet unknown.
Even as the journey unfolds,
hoping one day all will be resolved.
One day answers yet may come,
the pieces falling into place.
Reaching far beyond the stars,
grabbing ahold of eternity.
Still we feel the burden of hope,
reminded of a home yet unknown.
Even as the journey unfolds,
hoping one day all will be resolved.

One day answers yet may come
the pieces falling into place.
Reaching far beyond the stars,
grabbing ahold of eternity.
Still I feel the burden of hope,
reminded of a home yet unknown.
Even as the journey unfolds,
hoping one day...

all will be...
