Ancient Light Lyrics
Better get out of the way
Gonna figure out what I wanna say
I’ve been a long time comin’
Making my way through the weeds
Branches tug at my sleeves
I’ve been a long time gone
No more cryin’
I’m not gonna put up a fight
When I get there
I’ll be swimming in the ancient light
Dry leaves under my shoes
I got nothing to lose
And now the clouds roll in
In the dark I’m gathering
While everything’s unraveling
I’m building a fire
Sparks and smoke rings
Fill up the night
When it catches
I’ll be swimming in the ancient light
Thinking of who came before
I hear them knock at the door
They been a long time comin’
Mmmm when I let ‘em in
I feel their breath on my skin
They’ve been a long time gone
We’ll be dancing
Oh what a sight
When they get here
I’ll be swimming in the ancient light
