EARTHRISE

(album: HORIZONS - 2021)

I push my feet to the edge
I look and I face my world
This lonely scene, I take it in
It's hard to say where all of it begins and I end
And I waited for the sky to change but, oh, it never did
And I almost dropped my head and lost my faith
Then I saw you from a distance
You were worlds away
Oh but you had me from the vision
I never looked away again

I still fall for you like suns do for skies
Cerulean pouring in from your eyes
Just a hollow moon that you colorize
So powerful, I feel so small but so alive
Like watching the earthrise

I walk these streets of loneliness
A tranquil sea on all horizons
This empty scene of might-have-beens
I stare at starless skies that call to me and I still wish
(I still wish, I still wish, I still wish)

I still fall for you like suns do for skies
Cerulean pouring in from your eyes
Just a hollow moon that you colorize
So powerful, I feel so small but so alive
Like watching the earthrise

They said that we both were too different
That all of the shine would fade away
But I wish that I'd never listened
'Cause you pulled me through the gray

I still fall for you like suns do for skies
Cerulean pouring in from your eyes
Just a hollow moon that you colorize
So powerful, I feel so small but so alive
Like watching the earthrise
