Dar Williams - The Light And The Sea Lyrics

Setting out upon the waves in darkness and upheaval
I was told that I alone would not know good and evil
Oh but in time
But oh in time

It came to me
That as my ship would fall and rise
I could turn and lift my eyes
To the light, a distant light
And there will always be
The light and the sea,
The roiling sea, the light and me.

And as the days went by I turned my wheel towards the thunder
Taking on a challenge that I knew could take me under.
Oh, and it took me down
And oh it took me down

And it came to me
As I cursed the stem and sail
And called it fate that I should fail
There is a light
There is a light
And there will always be
The light and the sea,
The roiling sea, the light and me.

And it all comes down
Down to me
To feel the presence of my soul
Amidst the torrents and the cold
Of the sea.
And there will always be
The light and the sea,
The roiling sea, the light and me.

The light and me.
