Coastal Light III (versie 2)

Verse

Salt on the windshield where the wipers won't stay

Radio static fading into gray

Your jacket's still draped over the chair

No echo left of what we were here

Just the hum of the engine running clear

Counting down the hours till the dark turns white

Pre-Chorus

What if moving wasn't about goodbye

But finding out I can find my own sky

What if every ending's just a door

Into something I've never walked before

Chorus

We left this light behind like it was nothing at all

But the shape of it still holds me, still standing tall

I thought goodbye would take what little I had found

Turns out letting go is the only thing that saves you now

Coastal light on water, gold and wide

Verse

Now your number's just a memory star

Mine's burning bright against this traffic jar

Every streetlamp blinks like a promise made

I'm not running anymore, I'm not afraid

I kept your guitar pick under my floorboards tight

Learned how to play the whole song through the night

It doesn't sound like you but it sounds like me now

Like every ending's just a doorway somehow

Pre-Chorus

What if moving wasn't about goodbye

But finding out I can find my own sky

What if every ending's just a door

Into something I've never walked before

Chorus

We left this light behind like it was nothing at all

But the shape of it still holds me, still standing tall

I thought goodbye would take what little I had found

Turns out letting go is the only thing that saves you now

Coastal light on water, gold and wide

Bridge

Maybe the tide came in to wash away

The person I was before I learned how to stay

Maybe I don't need the whole old name

I can be a silhouette where it used to flame

Chorus

We left this light behind like it was nothing at all

But the shape of it still holds me, still standing tall

I thought goodbye would take what little I had found

Turns out letting go is the only thing that saves you now

Coastal light on water, gold and wide
