Astoria Lyrics

The Great Unknown

By: Shannon Webb & Jason Williams


One step forward, going onward

On this path to The Great Unknown

The road is winding, intertwining

Still Im blinded to The Great Unknown


So many faces here on my way

So many things I want to say

So many debts here left unpaid

But here I go


The clock is turning, while Edens burning

My soul still searching for, The Great Unknown

My hearts still racing, anticipating

Im still here waiting for The Great Unknown


So many faces here on my way

So many things I want to say

So many debts here left unpaid

Here I go


     Everyday I walk this road to you

     Everyday I sing this song of truth

     Everyday I cast fear on the stone

     To find you The Great Unknown



Astoria

By: Jason Williams


All the things you wanted

Thats led you down this endless road

Has blinded you from what you know is real


An though the rain is falling

From your broken windows you see

A world thats still calling you home


     Falling down, I'm falling down

     On things are not true

     I can hide from everything

     Except the ghosts in you


And do you still remember?

Childhood things and long lost dreams

A distant place inside your heart


But memories often fail

Faded with the time that passed through

The moments that prevail in our lives


     Falling down, I'm falling down

     On things are not true

     I can hide from everything

     Except the ghosts in you


Though the light it breaks through me

From shadowed skies

And day and dreams untie within to wonder why

Well close your eyes and breath again

And know youre here

The things you let drift away

Theyre so real... so real





Shadows On The Sun

By: Jason Williams


Heaven is moving slowly

Like a whisper on the wind

Can you hear it calling you

To come back home again


Where do you go from here

When all of your rescues are gone

Do you close your eyes, drift away

Like some forgotten song?


       And though the days are fading

       Like Shadows On The Sun

       I know you walked a thousand miles

       But I never saw you run


Remember the days behind you

Of magnets and miracles

Things that pulled you so close to me

So you knew I was the one


So why are you standing still?

With your head in the stars

The sky is moving sideways

And the ending is still so far


       And though the days are fading

       Like Shadows On The Sun

       I know you walked a thousand miles

       But I never saw you run





Stand

By: Jason Williams


The world is fading fast

The daylight is growing dim

Everything we thought would last

Goes rushing like the wind


Pull me close to you

Like the tide at daybreak

So all the world can see

Is the memory of loves embrace


      So save me where I Stand

      So I can watch the world fade away

      Save me where I Stand

      So I can learn to live another day


We ran so far away

To wash away the past

But built our kingdoms on

Things that will never last


Can you see days to come

Your vanity will reveal

You hold your soul for ransom

Of things that were never real


     So save me where I Stand

     So I can watch the world fade away

     So save me where I Stand

     So I can learn to live another day


     So save me where I Stand

     So I can watch the world fade away

     So save me where I Stand

     So I can learn to live another day





Ocean Road

By: Jason Williams


Will you follow me to the place Ive never been?

Along the broken path where the ocean meets the land


    Cause I have always wanted

    And I have always drifted

    But I was always dreaming that someday

    I would be, be the one you wanted


Does the wind still blow down an Ocean Road tonight?

Do you feel ashamed since summer passed you by?

But winters coming soon, I can feel his icy breathe

But its closing in on you, until you have nothing left


    But you were always silent

    And you were always drifting away

    But I was always dreaming that one day

    I would be, be the one you wanted.


    But I have always wanted

    And I have always drifted inside

    And was always dreaming that someday

    I would be, be the one you wanted





Secrets In The Valley

By: Jason Williams


From the mountains of the moon

To the Secrets In The Valley

I will remember you


From the cliffs down to the ocean

Where the sun meets the sky

I will remember you


You are the daylight to an endless dream

And you are the secrets in between

And though I walk through shades of night

Reflections of your radiant light

The day will come when we will sail away

On the breathe of GOD.
