Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a light that's shining out
And the calm wind in the pine
For the feat of they fear some travesty
Seems to have forgotten me
Seems to have forgotten me
If it hasn't learned by now
Where I've hit so very long
I'll come safely out into the silence film
In the wake of it's passing on
In the wake of it's passing on
[Verse 2]
A Spartan's Smile and Westward Stare
Holding promise in the air
That's the way they used to find their own way home
By the stars, on their own
By the stars, on their own
Well I prayed for promised land
To the place all I have made
Darkness feels the light I bear
In the hope of a lifetime phase
The hope of a lifetime phase
[Verse 3]
In the newfound reverie
A quiet piece of film
Freedom comes from being unafraid
Freed of the heartache that can plague a man
The heartache that can plague a man
[Verse 4]
A Spartan Smile and westward stare
Hold a promise in the air
That's the way they used to find their own way home
By the stars, on their own
By the stars, on their own
