Lost Souls Lyrics

Loreena McKennitt Lost Souls

This journey's over
Another's just begun
Beneath the moonlight
Or by the warming sun

I seek to hold you
In sunshine or in rain
Beneath the heavens
I'm coming home again

So far we drifted
Like ships upon the sea
Horizons fading
We lost to destiny

Storm clouds hover
Our vanity like pain
Which held back the winds
That bring us home again

Oh could I see now
The swallows in their flight
Watch the moon dance
On oceans in the night

The trees reach upward
To help the birds to fly
And of the creatures
Who'll hear them when they cry?

We walk the hillside
Like lost souls in the night
And in the darkness
We're searching for the light

And in the morning
Like freshly fallen dew
Much like a moon's breath
I'm coming home to you

This journey's over
Another's just begun
Beneath moonlight
Or by the warming sun

For I remember
That if my heart be true
Just like an eagle
I'm coming home to you
