In The Sky Lyrics - Kill To Get Crimson - Mark Knopfler

Are you home from the sea, my soul balladeer 

You've been away roaming far away from here 

weathered a storm, your heart unafraid 

crossed every ocean in the boat that you made 

Been blowing your horn, scaring the spooks 

No crotchets or quavers in your books 

Gone sailing all night, straight in the vein 

like a bird on his own flight in his domain in the sky 

Running in on the tide with the first of the stars 

the moon on the water and the sound of guitars 

Glide into the homing as the night falls 

to tie up in the haven by the old harbour wall 

And the hard-bitten stranger as deaf as a post 

who stands at the fire where a poet's dreams roast 

He can't know the story, he can't feel the pain 

and all of the glory falls around him like rain in the sky

You're a light in the dark, a beacon of hope 

and strong as a sea boat, strong as a rope 

And the vagabond wind, whispers over the bay 

and the songs and the laughter, are carried away in the sky
