lyrics

Holy City, steeples reaching towards the sky above
On the sidewalks, couples holding hands so much in love
Live oaks standing, as the breezes blow in from the sea
The winds in our hearts, the winds from the sea,
bring you home to me.

Now at last, I see you face to face
Not just only in my mind
Here we are, together in this place
Life has begun, future’s ahead, past is behind.
