lyrics

Into The Arms Of Yesterday

A crowd has gathered in the growing gloom
Some even still pretend to care
They've been arriving since late afternoon
Hoping to see familiar faces there

My eyes are feasting on the harbour lights
Where faded yellows turn to gold
It's her sweet voice I always long to hear
When there's a story to be told

But I'm still on the outside, looking in
I know these days I need some help
Remembering to keep myself afloat

Excited footsteps on the winding path
That snakes up to the lighthouse door
She falls into the arms of yesterday
As new waves crash upon her shore

We'd watch the sun go down,
On this seaside town, one last time
We won't need any help remembering
As long as her star still shines

She's the forgotten page of history
With all her best lines scribbled out
Cast off into the arms of yesterday
Today will have to live without
My eyes are feasting on the harbour lights
Where faded yellows turn to gold
It's her sweet voice I always long to hear
Some day her story will be told
