about

Inspired by the novel "Winter's Tale" by Mark Helprin

lyrics

Up on the roof, the realms of stars would find her there
And draw her forth and from her fever she would travel
The entirety of stars, galaxies unfolding, hiding no secrets from Beverly
What is the sound?... Light that has no bound
And if the light leaks through, don't deny it, let it shine on through
It's surging forth from somewhere we don't quite remember
Somewhere, would you believe that it might be just a step sideways?

Beverly saw, she remembered
Swallowed a truth far beyond whole knowledge
And if the light leaks through don't be hiding, let it shine on through
It's surging forth from somewhere we don't quite remember
Somewhere, would you believe that it might be just a step sideways?

Illness took her down...Lost to the Earthbound
And she already knew the way
Charting her path through the realms of starlight
And if you find yourself beyond the boundary
Don't be turning away, lest you miss a glimpse of something
You can almost remember
Somewhere, would you believe that it might be
Spirit in disguise as me, as you
Is home this recognition coming through?
