To me you are an island
Within a sea of silence
I’m sinking in by and by
Beyond the walls of wonder
That keep our souls asunder
Innocence is not a lie

If I fall through the rain
I will crawl beneath my shame
If I sing out my pain
I will stand for all my time

To some you are a tower
A clock that strikes the hour
Who am I to disagree
The mountains in between us
Forever will divide us
But every stream goes into the sea

Your Catherine Wheel is turning
I feel its fire burning
Love is not very far
The air is sparkling golden
Your mercy power’s unloading
Everything, everything is shining like a star

Behind the Song:
'It’s basically about what God means to me and also about what other people think about who God is. Some say He’s very high and unreachable, and others say He’s very strict. I don’t care what other people say because I know who He is personally.' - Sarah Brendel
