Between Two Oceans

from Lighthouse by Zanda Myrande

/

about

A meditation about going down to the sea in ships. Or, of course, up.

lyrics

BETWEEN TWO OCEANS

We live between two oceans
On stolen scraps of land
We huddle round our campfires
With the void on every hand
So deep and wide and dangerous
Our courage is apt to fail
And yet we steel ourselves
Somehow to sail.

One ocean is of water
As far as eyes can see
Beyond horizon's curvature
Who knows what there might be?
Though storms may lash our fragile craft
And maelstroms draw us down
We take the dare
And hope that we'll not drown.

Bridge:
A thousand and a thousand years
We've sailed this stormy sea
And yet we've never mastered it
Nor plumbed its mystery.
And this is perfect training
For the task that's yet to do
For there's another ocean waiting
Just beyond the blue...

This ocean stretches endlessly
Its islands few and far
They huddle round the campfires
Of every shining star.
We sail it in our silver ships
Again we take the dare
To find another world 
Somewhere out there.

We live between two oceans
Wherever we may go
And what may lie beyond them...
Some day we'll know.

Lives in Wiltshire and has better friends than she deserves.
