“It Dawned on Me” – I’ll light a beacon

“It Dawned on Me” by Dave Dobbyn

There’s a black blue front stole the west horizon
Under ocean song hear the tolling bell
On the seventh wave rides my aspirations
They will break, for sure, all my dreams to tell
It dawned on me
It dawned on me
It just dawned on me
This must be what your heart reveals

Blood red bloom pohutukawa
The black dunes hiss with the grasses’ breath
I’ll gather my driftwood and light a beacon
It’s for you I cry, it’s for you I burn
It dawned on me
It dawned on me
It just dawned on me
This must be what your heart reveals

And hey! It just dawned on me for the first time
This must be what your heart reveals

It dawned on me
It dawned on me
It dawned on me
This must be what your heart reveals.
