Lyrics

Be the flow
Be the river
Be the daylight deciding
Which world to light up
Which heart to show
I’ve been the question
To my answers
I’ve been the waters
Raging cold
I’ve been the seeker
Afraid of burdens
As I stand on Two Shores

The branches they bend
And they sound with an echo
The winds toss my thoughts
But my words don’t let go
I’ve been the leaver
Who stayed in going
I’ve been the eyes
on the pictures I hold
I’ve been the roots
that swing like a willow
As I stand on Two Shores

These are grandfather’s words

Whisper it true
I won’t ever forget you
Watching the mirror
With two sides of me
Shout to the sea
I‘ll stand like a pillar
Wade through the reasons
Glide o’er belief
I’ve been the longer
In all my shortcomings
As I stand on Two Shores

These are grandfather’s words
And I won’t dare forget them

Be the flow
Be the river
Be the daylight returning
On worlds that bright up
My heart to show
I caught a glimpse
of something dreaming
Lull me to dawn
With the prize of your words
Carry our places
Across the oceans
As I stand on Two Shores
These are grandfather’s words

And I won’t dare forget them
Grandfather’s words
On Two Shores
