Distant Shores Lyrics by ShadowStrike

Fables & Folklore

2021

[Verse 1]
Come gather 'round and listen to the tale
As the waves fall on the shore
Here in the dark as we sit fireside
As we make our journey home

[Pre-Chorus]
Ages pass and heroes die
But our hearts will stay ever strong
Years of hope, beast of night
Fables and folklore are coming to life

[Chorus]
As we sail overseas
To old distant shores
Through waters vast
Dreaming of more
Visions of those we lovеd long ago
Cold are the waters wе once used to know

[Spoken]
"And as the clouds gave way on the final night
The harvest moon shone brightly
On the calm ocean surface
Worn and weary, they peered across
To the shores of their homelands
In the waters they once used to know"

[Verse 2]
Listen to the wind as it blows through the trees
Bearing the shadows of my memories
See the sun rise
As it breaks through the clouds
All on our long journey home

[Pre-Chorus]
Ages pass and heroes die
But our hearts will stay ever strong
Orphaned child, stormy skies
Fables and folklore are coming to life

[Chorus]
As we sail overseas
To old distant shores
Through waters vast
Dreaming of more
Visions of those we loved long ago
Cold are the waters we once used to know
