Better Days Are Calling

Verse

Salt on the suitcase, sun on the pier

Your shadow gets smaller the longer I steer

Palm leaves are wavin' like hands sayin' goodbye

Twelve gulls on the wire, cuttin' through sky

Pre-Chorus

So how do I leave what I love

And still keep my eyes on the sun above

Tell me how do I go

Chorus

Better days are calling, calling out to me

Past the harbor lights, out on the open sea

Gonna miss you steady, miss you like the tide

But better days are calling on the other side

Verse

Your porch light still burning in my rearview glass

Three years of Sundays I'm leaving in the past

The kettle you gave me is rattling below

Steam on the window spells out where I go

Pre-Chorus

So how do I hold what we had

And still walk forward without lookin' back

Tell me how do I grow

Chorus

Better days are calling, calling out to me

Past the harbor lights, out on the open sea

Gonna miss you steady, miss you like the tide

But better days are calling on the other side

Bridge

Maybe the ocean's the only truth

Nothing stays anchored, not me, not you

But I'll send you sunrises wrapped in the wind

Every horizon's a letter I'm sending

Chorus

Better days are calling, calling out to me

Past the harbor lights, out on the open sea

Gonna miss you steady, miss you like the tide

And better days are calling, so I'm letting go tonight
