Cedar Fog

[Intro]
[Verse]
E-flat minor, morning chill
Cedar whispers, window sill
Fog curls soft on painted hulls
A silent dawn, the ocean lulls
[Pre-Chorus]
Open G, a gentle strum
Where has all the feeling come?
From faded ink on paper thin
Where do I even begin?
[Chorus]
This cottage air is thick with mist
Like promises I barely kissed
Each fishing boat, a ghost unseen
Lost in what might have been
[Verse]
Your letter held within my hand
Smudged ink across this lonely land
A ribbon mic to catch my breath
Whispering secrets close to death
[Pre-Chorus]
The spinet sighs a soft refrain
Washing over me like rain
Each note a tear I can't quite shed
For words that linger, left unsaid
[Chorus]
This cottage air is thick with mist
Like promises I barely kissed
Each fishing boat, a ghost unseen
Lost in what might have been
[Bridge]
Cello's mournful, low lament
A fragile thread, heaven-sent
Cross-stick taps, a steady beat
On this quiet, sad retreat
[Verse]
I trace the lines, a faded name
Fueling this old, dying flame
The acoustic hums a low, sad tune
Beneath this pale and hazy moon
[Chorus]
This cottage air is thick with mist
Like promises I barely kissed
Each fishing boat, a ghost unseen
Lost in what might have been
[Outro]
