lyrics

40 Days (Music by David Casey, Lyrics by David Casey/Kate Plummer)

Welcome to the sea, so at last we’re sure
We’ve come home to the edge of the world
While the sun disappears at the far side of day
Like a firework spark that has fallen to gray

40 days, so long
40 nights, so long, long, now it’s time to go

In a perfect world we would fall asleep
To the sound of waves rising from the deep
While the stars reappear to inspire the dark
To point out the way, nothing keeps us apart

40 days, so long
40 nights, so long, long, now it’s time to go

See the moon shyly staging her last curtain call
Taking a bow at the end of it all

40 days, so long
40 nights, so long, long, now it’s time to go
