Title: "Oath Across the Sea"

Throw your words into the wind, my love

Let them sail past stone and tide

Though I stand on bloodied shores

You remain here in my mind

Blades have sung their final cry

Fires fade in stranger lands

But still I search the stars above

For the light within your hands

Sing to me across the sea

Where the moonlight meets the foam

I have wandered far from you

But your heart remains my home

Let your voice ride on the storm

'Til it finds my soul alone

I leave whispers on the breeze

Let them find you in your sleep

You still haunt my waking dawn

In the hush before I weep

Cold the nights, and long the sky

But your name I carve in stone

Oaths I swore beneath the gods

Still burn beneath my bones

Sing to me across the sea

Through the silence, through the flame

Let the wind carry our vow

Let it call you by my name

When the war is dead and done

Come back through the northern rain

I’ll wait... where the birch trees bend

Where your shadow meets the end...
