We then return



Lights in the eyes
Bring upon us
A night and a sky
With a moon that appears
In the darkness of time
As we move through space
And in turn
We find a place
In the light and time
Where all shall shine
In the light upon a blue sky
As clouds part
And the sun reappears
And the time draws near
We then return
To a place among the stars
As the light
Is distant and far
In between the future
And the past
As our eyes
Cast a light in time
