about

A Tale Of Redemption And Discovery

lyrics

As The Seabirds Scavenge
In The Stone Cold Air
The Flags, The Lines
Beat Out A Fanfare
Then The Engines Start To Pound
Beneath Our Tired Feet
And We Slowly Inch Away
And My Heart Begins To Beat

Heading Due North

The Signs I See Before Me
Point Towards A Sprawling City
Dusty Railway Platforms
Lined Up In A Row
Paper Cups And Paper Money
In This Town Of Milk And Honey
Pull The Shutters One By One
And Take This Coastal Route I'm On

Heading Due North
There Are No Maps To Chart This Course
Across The Blue, Yeah
Satellite Moon Rolls

Cutting Through A Slate Blue Ocean
On A Ship Of Pure Emotion
Bright Red Buoys And Beacons
Show The Way To Go
Overhead As Birds Fly South
Words Keep Falling From My Mouth
Insticts Flow From Mother Earth, She Says;
Let's Live This Life For All It's Worth

Heading Due North
There Are No Maps To Chart This Course
Across The Blue, Yeah
Satellite Moon Rolls
Heading Due North
Beacons Lead Pilgrims To Distant Shores
Breathe The Cool Sweet Air
Blowing Due North
Baby Blowing Due North

Cool Waters, Clear Reflections
There's No Time Now For Hesitation
Where Seas They Might Be Raging
The Coloured Flags Be Swaying
This Child Anticipating
A Brave New Land

Heading Due North
There Are No Maps To Chart This Course
Across The Blue, Yeah
Satellite Moon Rolls
Heading Due North
Beacons Lead Pilgrims To Distant Shores
Breathe The Cool Sweet Air
Blowing Due North
