The Tempest
From Cities to Oceans Lyrics

The lights from the south bound carry my heart home
I am traveling back towards home and my heart longs to be reunited with you.

Back to you through the darkness of tonight
Even though it's dark and difficult, I am determined to make it back to you.

Now a year ago we were heading east and we begin
We started a journey together a year ago, heading in one direction, and now we find ourselves at a crossroads.

Now we find it hard to say good bye to say good bye
Even though it seems like it's time to part ways, we find it difficult to actually say goodbye.

We'll carry on like this never happened
We'll continue to live our lives as if this moment of separation never occurred.

We'll carry on like you never existed
We'll try to move on without each other, as if our relationship never happened.

Just being here brings back all the things you've said and all the things I meant to say
Being in this place reminds me of all the conversations we've had, and all the things I wanted to tell you but never did.

I couldn't find the proper words
I struggled to articulate my thoughts and feelings in a way that truly expressed what I wanted to say.

With every second I am fading away and I will see your eyes again
As time passes, I feel like I am losing my connection to you, but I cling to the hope that I'll see you again.

We are the last
We are alone in this moment, facing the consequences of our past actions.

We'll carry on
Despite the pain and difficulty we're experiencing, we'll continue to move forward and carry on with life.

On, On
We'll keep moving forward, no matter what.
