Homeward - VNV Nation

The hallowed lands so far behind

As fleeting dreams still linger

Like distant voices through the rain

Like grains of sand cast from my hands

I never thought I’d go this far

Without a star to cross the seas

So far from shores I’d left behind

Still far from shores I’ve yet to reach

I try to find the strength I need

To calm the doubts in my beliefs

With the will, I know my heart won’t break

And if I have strength then I’ve belief

If I have love my heart still beats

Here under stars far from home

The picture fades, the light recedes

The sound is lost in whispers

My recollections once clear and pure

Now distant lights that dim with time

I never thought I’d go this far

Without a star to cross the seas

So far from shores I’d left behind

Still far from shores I’ve yet to reach
