Great Unknown

[Verse 1]
When the day was through and the living was done
When the dark of the night stole the breath from the sun
Your light still shone bright, it would take no rest
And that's the way I'll remember you best

[Verse 2]
When the road you walked was an uncertain track
With the weight of hope heavy on your back
You stayed to the course, withstood every test
And that's the way I'll remember you best

[Chorus]
Let that tall ship carry you into the great unknown
And the soft breezе marry you
To the heart of one who is nеver alone

[Verse 3]
When your eyes were stung by the blindness of age
When your weary bones felt the ache and the rage
You still reached for those who had gone unblessed
And that's the way I'll remember you best

[Chorus]
Let that tall ship carry you into the great unknown
And the soft breeze marry you
To the heart of one who is never alone

[Verse 4]
Oh, when my faith and trust in the [distance] was gone
When my soul was lost, your direction was strong
In your north and south, in your east and west
And that's the way I'll remember you best

[Outro]
I'll remember you when the birds take wing
I'll remember you when the oceans sing
I'll remember you neath a sky of blue
I'll remember you, I'll remember you
I'll remember you when the sweet wind blows
I'll remember you, oh, when the wild, wild grows
I'll remember you in all that is true
I'll remember you, I'll remember you
