Gods and Monsters

I thought I'd have to do battle

With gods and monsters

I thought I had to seek prophets

On distant horizons

Questions I never have answers for

Questions that never have answers

See the lights on the other side

And I'm burning up

Oh and the river flows fast and wide

As I cross over

I thought the story had endings

But the path proved hard to find

I thought that love had a summit

With a view of all humankind

But the rocks of love come tumbling over me

Questions that never have answers

See the lights on the other side

I'm burning up

Oh and the river flows fast and wide

As I cross over

Journeying far from your orbit

Sent past the end of the earth

Just to feel the place that has called me summoned me

Is right there in your arms, the birth, the death

Heaven and hell have a fury unleashed

Questions that never have answers

See the lights on the other side

I'm burning up

Oh and the river flows fast and wide

As I cross over

The story without end

I heard at the end of all time, the beginning

Closing my eyes with our children in mind

The beginning of love is sublime

And the story without ending

I can see all the way to the distant shore

Oh the story without ending is I love you

I love you

I love you

See the lights on the other side

As I'm burning up

Oh and the river flows fast and wide

As I cross over
