Standard Candles Video (MV)

There are flickering moments of clarity
When all I see is you
Candle light across the breadth of your face
An enchanting, timeless view
And then I wonder how high
An angel would fly
For a prayer of a chance to be with you

Feeling alive, I relish all extremes
All but saying goodbye
I continue to strive though youth is fading
Bereaving broken wings as I can still fly

"Sadder still to watch it die
Than never to have known it" - Neil Pert of RUSH

I wish upon a special star
To calculate how far away you are

The clockwork of heaven gives us Standard Candles
Blazing forth with surety
That there's a ghost of a chance for love to exist
Across the boundless swaths of eternity

Our candle burns at both ends
As referenced by our inertial frames
In our luminous entanglement
We fuel the glowing flames of love

Sadder still
Watch it die
Never have I known this

And then I wonder how high
An angel would fly
For a prayer of a chance to be with you

We should jump at this chance
For timing is everything
Let our heavenly bodies collide
Life in a glance
Experience beckoning
Nothing between us denied
We are alive

And then I wonder how high
An angel would fly
For a prayer of a chance to be with you
