Lanterns on the Water (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Amber lights on the dock line flicker down

Your breath in mine where the harbor fogs roll round

Fishing nets hung dry with a thousand ghosts

Out here we find what the water lets go

I saw you standing there by the old piers

Rust and shadow, same blue in your eyes

Pre-Chorus

And can you hear that bell on the tide swing through?

Something inside me is starting to pull true

Chorus

We're sailing into dawn on a borrowed name

The only compass we need is this flame

Ghosts on the water, set us free tonight

Where the dark meets daylight, our own light takes flight

Verse

Fenders worn smooth as your shoulders lean in

Every wave breaking is writing out what's been left unsaid again

Lanterns burning red like an open door

We leave behind all we've kept waiting for

Your hand takes mine through the foam and the sound

Nothing else matters when you pull me around

Pre-Chorus

And can you hear that bell on the tide swing through?

Something inside me is starting to pull true

Chorus

We're sailing into dawn on a borrowed name

The only compass we need is this flame

Ghosts on the water, set us free tonight

Where the dark meets daylight, our own light takes flight

Bridge

This isn't about finding what's been lost

It's just the way we move through the cost

We keep swimming till the sky turns white

And nothing stays hidden when it sees your light

Chorus

We're sailing into dawn on a borrowed name

The only compass we need is this flame

Ghosts on the water, set us free tonight

Where the dark meets daylight, our own light takes flight
