about

written by Geoffrey Bruce Panting (SOCAN)

lyrics

Across the frontier of a northern country
Past the region of the standing stones
Past the farmland and the mountain valleys
To where the dark eyed maiden waits alone

Her heart stands on a promise given
On a day not so long ago
Her mind turns to its own survival
Homeward in the snow

Six tonged fire from a burning reef
And the sounds of war and the smell of grief
He stands on deck and he thinks of her
And the world recedes and his senses blur

A common tale, so history tells us
We're all the same once we're on the shelves
A common picture of our hearts desires
A common portrait of our common fire

Fickle winds of change may roll the sea of life
But we ride the waves through the toil and strife
We fight the fear and ease the pain
And in the end hope to remain

credits
