Towards the Shores

I'm following a sputtering spark
 Through a curtain of fog
 The gale is biting crackling boards
 Splashing my self-esteem
 I'm trying to read the course on the map
 Compass leading astray
 I feel I need to find a way
 Before being shipwrecked
 Come all aboard,
 Sighs, thoughts and worries all
 On frantic course
 I am following the track to windy shores
 A song to the wind, an ode to the sea
 Chanting snowdrops of soul
 Allow me please to be nearer to thee
 I'm heading towards the shores
 The little flame you're holding up
 Is tracking a new path
 Little step by little wrath
 I am pointing my new way
 I'm leaving spoors in the moist sands
 Little motives of hope
 You can see me as in Dark I grope
 Please give me your hand
 Entwined and torn
 Is the heart of Man who lives
 The circle of Life
 Is a journey long and unforeseen to new shores
 A song to the wind, an ode to the sea
 Chanting snowdrops of soul
 Allow me please to be nearer to thee
 I'm heading towards the shores
 A poem to the dawn, a verse to the dusk
 A lighthouse drawing the line
 Your eyes and your smile have left me unmasked
 I'm strolling on new shores
