Carried By The Light Lyrics

Black Sorrows Carried By The Light

There's thunderclouds ahead
and peril on the shore
it takes a bell to wake the dead
so ring it hard once more

we swore to put things right
by the shadow of a lover's moon
then you have me back my sight
and not a moment too soon

this ain't no Lord's Day journey
there's no treasure or golden prize
I'm on the road to ruin
carried by the light in your eyes

black seas pitch and toss
til you're unsteady on your feet
when they raise that fiery cross
together we'll share the heat

there's terror in the sky
the fury never stops
you carry me
we'll chart a steady course
no tears or remorse
you carry me

there's thunder in my head
the coast is ironbound
now I remember what you said
it's like a hammer comin' down
