lyrics

there's a red bird in the valley and it knows the storms by name
in my weary desperation i was bound to know the same
so i rose up with my arrows and i shot clean through its heart
go my love and seek the blackbird and we never more shall part

far beyond darling, far beyond
makes no difference why I've gone
keep my memory, sing my song
i am traveling far beyond

far below those holy mountains at the dawning of the day
all the faithful ones were gathered but their gods had gone away
so they asked me there to lead them but my prophet's gift is gone
i've no wisdom, i've no counsel, i am merely passing on

far beyond darling, far beyond
makes no difference why I've gone
keep my memory, sing my song
i am traveling far beyond

in the market near the harbor where the women trade in time
there is one who speaks the future but she has no words for mine
all my ghosts are gathered round me, what a lonesome company
but my faith will be rewarded when I'm safe across the sea

far beyond darling, far beyond
makes no difference why I've gone
keep my memory, sing my song
i am traveling far beyond

put your sails up, hoist your anchor if you're ready to be free
I'll be ready, i am waiting for a shipmate on the sea
if i'm wrecked or if i'm drowning, if i've made it to the shore
i'll rejoice when you have saved me and i'll leave you never more

far beyond darling, far beyond
makes no difference why I've gone
keep my memory, sing my song
i am traveling far beyond
