Dar Williams The Light and the Sea Lyrics

INTRO: G D G D Em C G
Setting out upon the waves in darkness and upheaval
I was told that I alone would not know good and evil
Oh oh, but in time
But oh oh, in time
It came to me
That as our ship would fall and rise
I could turn and lift my eyes
To the light
A distant light
And there will all-always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me
And as the days went by, I turned my wheel towards the thunder
Taking on a challenge, that I knew could take me under
Oh oh, and it took me down
And oh oh, it took me down
And it came to me
As I cursed the stem and sail
And called it fate that I should fail
There is a light
There is a light
And there will all-always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me
And it all___ comes down
Down to me
To feel the presence of my soul
Amidst the torrents and the cold
Of the sea
And there will all-always be
The light and the sea
The roiling sea, the light and me
OUTRO: Em C G Em C
The light and me
