And Light Shines - David Lynch

In all configurations

The curve is the thing that can go back on itself

Over and over

As the stars turn around each other

And light the way for travelers

Who come along through time

Looking for that one that could bend the path just so

To take us home

And light shines

And light shines

Around the table, where they all sit smiling

Hands with fingers moving as they tell their stories of being lost

Then found

No matter what the place, they saw the face

Of one who showed the way along the road well-traveled

And light shines

And light shines

But so few were seen and sometimes it was a figure alone

When night came and thunderstorms

And rain fell from clouds which hit the sun

And no birds sing, no flowers grew in this darkness

Which closed around and smothered the man

To strange dreams of wanting

Yet never knowing what

And light shines

And light shines

And a longing was the only feeling left

As the road way grew narrow and steep

And the clime was like an aching in the dim light

One foot after the other upwards

A man at the crest

Which is thought to be only a wish

The dawn king like warriors with sounds filling all sky

And a roar deep as the bottom of hell

And darkness was torn away

So the angels came with the swimming light of heaven

And there was pain no more

Only a soaring of the heart

And a living memory of totality

And light shines

And light shines

And light shines

And light shines

And light shines

And light shines
