lyrics

The theater is closing again and the lights burn low
On two hearts suspended in time in the center row
Behind the curtain is a stage,
And behind that stage is a brilliant light

Tell me your improbable stories,
And let me tell my own
Tell me the one about those rebel hearts who found their way back home
By the glowing of a coal lit by unknown hands in an unsung life
Behind the curtain is a stage,
And behind that stage is a brilliant light

Come and wipe the blood from my face,
I'm just glad you're home
Come and carve your tale next to mine in the margins of my bones
And I tell you, we will make them true
When we learn how to tell them right
Behind the veil is a face,
And behind that face is a brilliant light
