Mirage of current, fading yet so real lyrics
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
