Lyrics

Well, I left here in my sleep when I was dreaming
Miles and miles away, into a place
My heart was scheming an escape
That love drew from me
And I met you on the corner of the seasons
Out of winter's reach and into summer's early sun
You were the moon and I was only 17
And I'm making all these things
And constructing all these scenes
And I'm stitching up the seams of the fabric of my dreams
And I'm here in my boat
And I'm roaring up to shore as you sing
Well, I'm ringing all the bells from my lighthouse, dear
Time is just an ocean and you're almost here
One for the mind, two for the soul
Three for the body and the heart that knows
That knows I'll never ever let you go
Oh silence, the silence a-ringing your bells
Singing the words in a whisper
Dispel all this noise, bring back the joy
Ring the world awake
'Cause if the only whole that we have is your world apart
And it's separate and broken and stained from the start
My heart will remain and take it anyway
Well, I'm ringing all the bells from my lighthouse, dear
Time is just an ocean and you're almost here
One for the mind, two for the soul
Three for the body and the heart that knows
That knows I'll never ever let you go
I'm ringing all the bells from my lighthouse, dear
Time is just an ocean and you're almost here
One for the mind, two for the soul
Three for the body and the heart that knows
That knows I'll never ever let you go
