Mirage of current, fading yet so real (version 2)

Verse

Morning gold on the harbor stone

Your suitcase humming, engine drone

Salt wind lifting the hem of your dress

Last kiss taste like a sweet regret

Ferry horn cutting through the haze

Counting down our shrinking days

Footprints filling up with tide

Watching you fade on the other side

Pre-Chorus

Tell me if the water carries what we had

Or if it's just the current running mad

Ay-ay, love don dey drift for real

But something in my chest still feel

Chorus

You're a mirage of current, baby, shimmer and gone

Sunlight on the water, but the love stay strong

Mirage of current, fading yet so real

Tide go bring you back, na so I feel

Verse

Palm trees waving from the shore

Your voicemail playing out once more

Coconut shells and diesel air

Empty bench where you used to sit there

Six months since your ship don sail

Postcards written but never mail

Still I stand where the water meet the land

Hope dey rising like the golden sand

Pre-Chorus

Tell me if the water carries what we had

Or if it's just the current running mad

Ay-ay, love don dey drift for real

But something in my chest still feel

Chorus

You're a mirage of current, baby, shimmer and gone

Sunlight on the water, but the love stay strong

Mirage of current, fading yet so real

Tide go bring you back, na so I feel

Bridge

Maybe distance na just a season

Maybe leaving got its own reason

I see your shadow in every wave that break

Every sunrise for you I go wait

Chorus

You're a mirage of current, baby, shimmer and gone

Sunlight on the water, but the love stay strong

Mirage of current, fading yet so real

Tide go bring you back, na so I feel
