A dark, but cloudless sky, so far,
yet near, a bright and shining star.
Looking up I make a wish.
Hoping now you'll catch the fish.

I saw again, a world of light.
A spark of hope in shadow's fright.
Hoping, trying to break free.
Knowing, now's the time to flee.

Right now I'm caught and bound by chain.
In shadow I am to remain.
Until one side pulls me back.
Will it be the white or black?

I'm dying here in shadowkeep.
I can but watch the moonlight weep.
'Till light fills this heart of mine.
'Till you show me true divine.

After years, again, I've seen you.
Not dead, strengthened is my love true.
Take this second chance and face,
spark to set our hearts ablaze.
