I see the lights
dance on the bay.
All of the dark falls away.
A glow from the heights
glances along the water's skin.
Nimble and bright, swallowed in.
I'm always breathless to see
growing so slowly to greet me
where I end and where she begins.
(Chorus)
When she shines for me in night
and her sky show green and white
she will keep us in her sight,
we all lie beneath her light.
Lost in the clouds
like tears in the rain
winking along all the same.
Sleeping alone
we never mind her diligence
watching us all lie awake.
Just on the edge of a dream
growing so slowly to greet me
tearing it all at its seams
(Chorus x1)
(Instrumental)
(Chorus x2)
