lyrics

Home

Old man
Misguided as I am
You have been my teacher
A silver thread
Buried in our blood
Yet it pulls us nearer

I am my Father's Son
His fearsome, fragile charm
I have my Mother's kindness
Her weariness of mind

I will never forget the place that I once called home
I'll run fast as I can into the great wide unknown

Set sail when the moon is full and the Sun is sleeping
Gold timber on a silver mirror, a compass in hand
I'm leaving once again
No gold - but a golden plan

I will never forget the place that I once called home
I'll run fast as I can into the great wide unknown

But don't misplace your faith in silence
We are tidal
Hear us as we roar

Old man, be careful where You stand
I've become your teacher
