Light in the Distance

These are weary bones I carry
All I once was has gone before
Time to sleep in endless dreaming
Alight the boat for distant shores

But for now hold my hand
As I leave for the promised land

'Cause there's a light in the distance
It calls me home
And I'm not afraid
This broken body
Is ready oh for its soul to roam

These scars tell their tale, but not the whole story
Moments of pain, but a lifetime of glory
So remember my face from years gone by
And when you close your eyes, I'll still be with you by your side

Oh dream of the days when we were young
As I fade with the setting sun

'Cause there's a light in the distance
It calls me home
And I'm not afraid
This broken body
Is ready oh for its soul to roam

Doesn't time fly when you're having fun
In the blink of an eye it's gone, oh it's gone, yeah it's gone

You know that light in the distance
It's called me home
