[00:06.45]Sometimes you feel so far away,
[00:09.89]Distanced from all the action of the play,
[00:17.99]Unable to grasp significance,
[00:21.21]Marking the plot with diffident dismay,
[00:29.07]Stranded at centre stage,
[00:35.00]Scrabbling through your diary for a lost page:
[00:41.08]Unsure of the dream.
[00:48.82]Kicking a stone across the beach,
[00:51.29]Aching for love and comfort out of reach,
[00:59.58]The way ahead seems to be so bleak,
[01:02.26]There's no-one with any friendship left to speak
[01:10.13]Or show any relation
[01:15.24]Between your present and future situations:
[01:22.37]Lost to the dream.
[01:29.50]Away, away, away: look to the future day
[01:53.81]For hope, some form of peace
[02:10.35]Within the growing storm.
[02:17.87]I climb through the evening,
[02:23.80]Alive and believing:
[02:29.03]In time we shall all know our goals
[02:36.34]And so, finally, home.
[02:39.32]For now, all is secret
[02:45.04]Though how could I speak it,
[02:49.99]Allow me the dream in my eye.
[02:58.13]I've been waiting for such a long time
[03:03.74]Just to see it at last,
[03:09.16]All of the hands tightly clasped,
[03:14.22]All of us pilgrims.
[03:19.23]Walking in silence down the coast,
[03:21.80]Merely to journey - here hope is the most;
[03:27.23]Merely to know there is an end,
[03:30.11]All of us - lovers, brothers, sisters, friends
[03:35.69]Hand in hand.
[03:40.90]Shining footprints on the wet sand
[03:46.96]Lead to the dream.
[03:54.11]The time has come, the tide has almost run
[04:18.30]And drained the deep: I rise from lifelong sleep.
[04:42.10]It seems such a long time
[04:48.52]I've dreamed but now, awake, I
[04:53.69]Can see we are pilgrims and so
[05:00.88]Must walk this road,
[05:04.33]Unknown in our purpose,
[05:09.68]Alone, but not worthless,
[05:14.85]And home ever calling us on.
[05:21.79]Oh, we've been waiting here for so long,
[05:28.25]All of our hands joined in hope,
[05:33.67]Holding the weight on the rope,
[05:38.75]All of us pilgrims.
