Sail the Stars

(Intro)

Oh - oh so divine
Oh - oh that shine

(Verse 1)

Darkness chases like a shadow
It's ever reaching from behind
But deep within it lies a secret
A beaming light that I can find

In blackness lays the brightest rays
A sea of suns so rare ...
In darkest night are stars so bright
I search my heart
To find them there

(Chorus)

My shining starlight
Always guiding me
Yeah - yeah

(Bridge)

I swim in a sea of starlight
And sail the ocean of suns

(Verse 2)

Set my compass to all wonders
Chart my course to dreams afar
Hear the billows as they thunder
I'm guided by the light of stars

(Chorus Out)

My shining starlight
Always guiding me
Yeah - yeah

My shining starlight
Always guiding me
Yeah - yeah

John Hamilton Date: 5/19/2019 7:00:00 PM Loved this G, sailed the oceans of suns, you must have a melody in mind knowing you it would be great! Login to Reply Gregory Richard Barden Date: 5/20/2019 1:01:00 AM John - it was written for a contest and had to fit a prerecorded song by Geraldine Taylor ... I rarely write words for others' music, but I did the same for another contest, (Craig Cornish - I'm Always Right Here), and actually enjoyed the process! This is her song ... https://choon.co/artists/geraldinetaylor/
