lyrics

Eye to the sky, ear to the ground
Wheels are turning
Miles and miles down
Copper, Pyrite, Serpentine
Rain below and stone that flies.

I'll drink the water, I'll toe the line
I'll keep the fire through the night
My heart's a bonfire you can navigate by
A thousand suns to keep in sight.

Let the west wind come and roll me down the dunes!
Let the wild dogs call the tune -
There will be light enough to get home again
As long as I'm breathing out and breathing in.

I'll follow the tide, I'll ride the flood.
Wherever it leaves me, I'll send up
A chrysanthemum of red and gold
To burn away the bitter cold
When all else has come undone
I'll be burning like a thousand suns.
