Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the dark wood fell before me
And all the paths were overgrown
When the priests of pride say there is no other way
I tilled the sorrows of stone
[Verse 2]
I did not believe because I could not see
Though you came to me in the night
When the dawn seemed forever lost
You showed me your love in the light of the stars
[Verse 3]
Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me
[Verse 4]
When the mountain rose before me
By the deep well of desire
From the fountain of forgiveness
Beyond the ice and the fire
[Verse 5]
Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me
[Verse 6]
Though we share this humble path alone
How fragile is the heart
Oh, give these clay feet wings to fly
To touch the face of the stars
[Verse 7]
Breathe life into this feeble heart
Lift this mortal veil of fear
Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears
We'll rise above these earthly cares
[Verse 8]
Cast your eyes on the ocean
Cast your soul to the sea
When the dark night seems endless
Please remember me
Please remember me
[Verse 9]
Please remember me
Please remember me
Please remember me
Please remember me
Please remember me
Please remember me
