lyrics
These arms that held me float in the air above
And while they drift around us I feel their endless love
There is a light between us inside this smoke filled space
And while it should have choked us it has the sweetest taste
This song we’re singing I knew no words before
But the notes pass through me like an open door
There is no floor below us but it feels so warm
Like a babies blanket held by a quiet storm
There’s so many lights
There’s so many lights
We maybe moving forward but it’s so hard to say
They’re no walls around us and it spreads out each way
Far down below us the greenest valley waits
Where the orchards blooming scent intoxicates us
And high above us a figure fills all space
And we long to touch it, it has our mother’s face
And though it smiles it’s eyes are always closed
And it’s arms contain us with our hearts exposed
There’s so many lights
There’s so many lights
And it’s a long way a long long way we go we go
And it’s a long way a long long way we go we go
And while they drift around us I feel their endless love
There is a light between us inside this smoke filled space
And while it should have choked us it has the sweetest taste
This song we’re singing I knew no words before
But the notes pass through me like an open door
There is no floor below us but it feels so warm
Like a babies blanket held by a quiet storm
There’s so many lights
There’s so many lights
We maybe moving forward but it’s so hard to say
They’re no walls around us and it spreads out each way
Far down below us the greenest valley waits
Where the orchards blooming scent intoxicates us
And high above us a figure fills all space
And we long to touch it, it has our mother’s face
And though it smiles it’s eyes are always closed
And it’s arms contain us with our hearts exposed
There’s so many lights
There’s so many lights
And it’s a long way a long long way we go we go
And it’s a long way a long long way we go we go

Jake has made the most essential album to come out of St. John's, so essential it's two albums.

With Darkness In My Eyes
by The Heavy HorsesYeah I made the album art, but also it is very very well done album, production is pure opulence. Justin Mahoney is a true gent.
