Farther Along and Further In
Farther along and further in
I've never gone, I've never been
But I feel a shift, a turning in
I've never felt before
Farther along and further in
There's a crack in the armor, an opening
My heart seeing out and my eyes see in
Where they've never seen before
what I chased that couldn't be caught
wars I lost I shouldn't have fought
everything that can't be taught
Farther along and further in
I think I'm finally listening
To some kind of spirit murmuring
I've never heard before
hold the world and trust the wait
the road back home is never straight
bang the drum and keep the faith
Time, memory, love and grace
The kindred eyes in a strangers face
lead down to the deeper place
Farther along and further in
We're atoms and stardust circling
catching the light then we're gone again
Farther along and further in
