An Hour Is Long

when all around is deathless pure
come so far for what's inside
mortal bells are ringing out
have i been so blind

i will learn to be another
clothe your winter in dayrise
i will lead you like a lover
place the flower in delight
the further we go
self is not a home
take a far light to reach us
a story we've outgrown

where the hour's hand has signed
our acrobat is bending time
frozen bells are ringing now
have i been so blind

i can learn to be another
come to meet you in dayrise
i can lead you like a lover
place the flower in delight
the further we go
self is not a home
take a far light to reach us
a story we've outgrown
