Meet me where the sand meets the sea My home is atop that crumbling cliff Follow me up the steep path, you may come in More a fortress, less of a home It's the only place I call my own And the tall ship on the grey seas when they flash emerald green
Foolish though it may be To indulge in all that we've been We'll uncork the spirits of our past And welcome them in
Oh, the laughter flushed in your cheeks Your legato half-rhymes Echo down tapestried halls I'm almost alive
Songs upon wine-stained tongues Stories over hearty soup Let me remind you of all you forgot you knew
Down the hall, up the stairs Most nights I spiral down, down, down But would you like a vista of a starlit town? Higher still, been so long No one dared visit in eons Look just there, breathe the night air Beneath the stars
Our hands are like ice Should have known that you're like me If you have time, I'd like to hear All about the things you've seen Those spectres in your eyes The seabreeze in your hair What dark voyage left you soulfully scarred?
They shunned me, a fatherless boy With only one friend, who taught me the words of men Then I wove them in melodies and garnered acclaim I sang for my fortune, for all that was lost I saw every kingdom but never forgot The one who brought me from silence to serenade
The way was rough, the sea took my life To a decadent hell in eternal night With a demon who dealt in souls and granted dreams It called me Darling, gave me its years I live on borrowed time with tears Long-run dry, so I weep them in songs of memories
I know that one, minor IV and back home? The deep-rooted ache, to be seen, to be known Our hands like ice, but comfort glows Like embers fanned by songs on wine-stained tongues Yeah!
We laugh, I cry, the night goes on The shadows of old friends long-gone Somehow doesn't frighten you away
Cinnamon smoke, candlelight on your face Fingers entwined in the night's embrace Our eyes shut, but you've seen me, and I've seen you Comfort in company, and songs we both knew
I've seen you, you've seen me If our demons dance, so can we
I live for the days when your fangs lay bare Your stormy oceans and starlight stare To hell with it all I love you now and foreverTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
