Sky King- 2018 (Bedroom Demo #78) (Patreon)

In honor of Easter (the celebration of the Holy Fool's ultimate prank on Death) and the fact that the Horrendous Disc re-issue will be delayed for 3 more years...

Sky King (Out Across The Sky)
Words and music by Terry Scott Taylor

Clouds are gathering round my head

It’s a rainy day without an end

I’d change the world but it won’t bend

Did I hear Your voice in the wind?

Did I hear You calling?

Is it a lighthouse shining in the night?

No, I believe it’s a star twinkling up on high

It’s clearing now my eyes are dry

And I can see You sailing out across the sky

Out across the sky

This is not a dream, You’ve taken flight, 

far above the world

You walk on clouds, You ride the light, 

far above my head 

Out across the sky, out across the sky

I’m out across the sky, the ground is gone

And I’m dancing on the wind, I’m dancing 

on the wind

Ain’t no packing bags when your voyage 

is to the Son

Ain’t no last good-byes when heaven calls you on

It’s hard to believe this dreary night is gone

But I can feel it’s meant for everyone

It’s meant for everyone

This is not a dream, You’ve taken flight, 

far above the world

You walk on clouds, You ride the light, 

far above my head

Out across the sky, out across the sky

I’m out across the sky

The ground is gone

And I’m dancing on the wind, 

Out across the sky, far above the world 

Out across the sky, far above the world 

Out across the sky

Instruments, vocals- TST

... ha! just kidding! The whole Horrendous re-issue is at the manufacturer and we're all holding our breath...
