Theodora In Green And Gold Lyrics

Shivers of glass
Shards of stone
Hiding faded designs
Neath the surface
Reflections of light
Keepers of souls

Here set in glass
And in gold
All these moments of life
Brought together

Splinters of light
Colours of time
Shaded with meaning

Here she stands
Theodora in green and gold
A chalice in her hands
Reflecting the light that falls
On distant fabled lands
With the last of the Romans
Facing her across the aisle
Re-makers of empire
Builders of wonders
Lost in time
Made in candlelight
By hand alone
Here she stands
Theodora in green and gold A chalice in her hands
Reflecting the light that falls
On distant fabled lands
With the last of the Romans
Facing her across the aisle
Re-makers of empire
Builders of wonders
Lost in time

Fragments are pieced together
Tilted to catch the light
The lines and the colours
Shape and form
The words of the artist

Here they stand
Together for all time
Set in glass and stone
Reflecting the light that falls
On distant fabled lands
The last of the Romans
Laying claim to common ground
The north and the south
The east and the west
A golden thread in time
