Lyrics

Across the Sea for Kim and Tarquin, from Stella and Lisa Verse 1 Across the sea on a wave of emotion We never thought it would ever change Just a laugh, a cry again But nothing ever stays the same I walk into a silent room And I know you’re not coming home Verse 2 You were so small, a breath in my arms A life that barely touched the ground But in your eyes, I saw the stars And in your leaving, I was found You opened something deep in me A door that led across the sea Chorus Are you flying now, my boy, my light? Did the sky break open the day you took flight? I send my voice across the blue Every word a lullaby to you Though I never heard you speak my name You're etched in fire, you're in the flame Verse 3 He held me then — your father, strong Carried me when days were long His music healed what couldn’t be said He led me to the path ahead Now he’s gone, and yet he stays In every note our daughter plays Bridge Lisa, you were born from all we lost And everything we dared to love You carry more than just a name You are the song, you are the flame Final Chorus Are you flying now, my son, my guide? Did you come to light the world inside? Tarquin, your song still echoes on In Lisa’s voice, in every dawn We didn’t get to grow old and gray But you gave us the sky that guides our way Outro (spoken, whispered) Across the sea... Beyond the veil... We remember. We remain. We rise.
