Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the silver light
I just made out
Your silhouette
Through the quickening haze
So brand it on my mind
So I don't forget
Let it shine
On my wandering eyes
[Verse 2]
And ooh
Your love endures
And ooh
I have faith for the rest
[Verse 3]
I'm blinded by the lights
Of October skies
These postcard memories
Evade my eyes
And in the valley I am free
But in the hills I soar
Until your silhouette
Is gone once more
[Verse 4]
And ooh
Your love endures
Ooh
I have hope once more
[Verse 5]
The fear of what's to come
Has been crippling me
So to your silhouette
I turn once more
So brand it on my mind
So I won't forget
Let it shine
Let it shine
By my wandering eyes
Well let it shine
Let it shine
By my wandering eye
[Verse 6]
Ooh
Your love endures
Ooh
I have hope once more
