[Lyric] The Emerald Divide (Niovel)

As another ship departs
Another fortnight has passed
They come they say goodbye and
Leave her island

This is all she has ever known
Her realm, her life, her home
And her natural devotion
To the ocean

She's to keep the flame alive
Through the darkness, she's the guide

And one summer's night
She stood on the shore
Gazing at the sea
Yearning to explore
What there may be
On the other side
Of the emerald divide
With her arms spread wide
She took one more step
And recalled the song
As her feet got wet
She's the one
The long lost bride
Of the emerald divide

A motherly embrace
Soon the waves caress her face
There's a pleasant new sensation
Alteration

In her new form she descends
Meets the dwellers of these lands
Visits the palace, and unforeseen
She knows their queen

So this is where you went
This is who you represent

And one summer's night
She stood on the shore
Gazing at the sea
Yearning to explore
What there may be
On the other side
Of the emerald divide
With her arms spread wide
She took one more step
And recalled the song
As her feet got wet
She's the one
The long lost bride
Of the emerald divide

At morning light
She lies on the shore
As consciousness
Returns once more
Memories of a magic night
In the emerald divide

An adventure that might
Change her course
She gets to her feet
Steps into the source
Will she seek
The cold delight
Of the emerald divide
