Into the Light

I knew this road was calling me

Even when it pulled away from where I'd be

Autumn leaves like sparks upon the ground

Country lanes with promise all around

What we lost gave way to something bright

I found my place beneath the starry light

And I knew, I was never meant to hold it all

The wind may rise, the frost may fall

But the horizon opened wide with light

Miles and miles, hope in sight

This place once burned with voices strong

Teaching us the joy of pressing on, pressing on

Your song broke through and lit the air

A shining beacon, guiding there

Not the vows, not the ties, not the words we say

But the stillness showed the truth that stays

And I knew,I was lifted by a greater hand

Carried higher than I thought I'd stand

Through frozen fields, through endless skies

I could see for miles and miles and miles

The night pressed stars against the glass

A fleeting gift too good to pass

We breathed it in, we let it soar, let it soar

And now it burns forevermore

And I knew — I was part of a greater story

Just a witness to the silence and the glory

High above, where hope still smiles

I could see for miles, and miles, and miles
