I was speaking to myself again just yesterday Walking where the fen will meet the tide Just saying that I haven't met a soul out here for years And how it is I'm not sure that I mind And I'm gonna throw my arms around the world someday Surrender this weight into the sky I haven't ever, I haven't ever made it through the night Without first getting kissed by celestial light I was walking by myself again just yesterday Wandering through the back roads of my mind Just saying that I haven't met a soul out here for years And all at once the sky began to shine And the landscape is seeking a language between us, wherever I go And the joy beyond reach is a place I can seek what it is I know I haven't ever, I really never made it through the night Without first getting kissed by celestial light And I'm gonna throw my arms around the world again Surrender this weight into the ground I haven't ever, I haven't ever made it through the night Without first getting kissed by celestial light Without first getting kissed by celestial light And the landscape is speaking a language between us wherever I go And the joy beyond reach is a place I can't speak of what it is I know I hope you never, I hope you'll never make it through the night Without first getting kissed by celestial light Without first getting kissed Without first getting kissed Without first getting kissed by celestial light
