Lyrics
A painted world of greens and blues
The rush and push
Of waves upon the sands
An invisible hand
The stars are bright
Before the moon
The setting sun
A ghost in the growing dark
The hidden heart
And when the tears
Have come alive
Like a silent witness
To the truth
This rush and push upon the heart
Writes upon the sands its glory
A hidden world of heights and breadths
An ecstacy infused in every rock
The key to the lock
The stars they fall
From the sky
The moon she's dark
Her light a fading thing
The meek one's sing
And when the tears have come alive
Like a silent witness to the truth
This rush and push upon the heart
Writes upon the sands its glory
An emerging world
Of depths in depths
A tongue with words
For the thoughts of everyone
An invisible Sun
Apace She moves across the sky
Within the span
She links the silent cries
With the hearts on High
And when the tears have come alive
Like a silent witness to the truth
This rush and push upon the heart
Writes up[on the sands its glory
