歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The ivy climbs the marble wall I watch the silver shadows fall The brass is cold beneath my hand A king of this forgotten land Your astrolabe is tarnished grey The light of day has slipped away [Pre-Chorus] One candle burns against the night To catch the dust in golden light I find your name in every spark Across the velvet of the dark [Chorus] I trace the lines of Lydia's Crown While all the world is sleeping down You mapped the sky to keep me near But left me in the silence here The stars are bright But out of sight You are the ghost within the sphere [Post-Chorus] Oh, the celesta rings For everything That winter brings [Verse] The leather spine is cracked and old With secrets that were never told Between the maps of Mars and Moon You left the world for us too soon Unwritten words on parchment white Are all I have to hold tonight [Pre-Chorus] The oboe sighs a lonely song Where did our golden years belong? The French horn calls across the deep While all the ancient heavens weep [Chorus] I trace the lines of Lydia's Crown While all the world is sleeping down You mapped the sky to keep me near But left me in the silence here The stars are bright But out of sight You are the ghost within the sphere [Bridge] Through the lens of polished glass I watch the heavy centuries pass My velvet gown is heavy now With salt upon my aching brow Spin the wheels and turn the gears To find the rhythm of the years Before the vision disappears [Interlude] [Verse] I tilt the lens toward the north To call your frozen spirit forth The glass is blurred by salt and mist A phantom face I never kissed In D major, the strings will rise To meet the sorrow in my eyes [Chorus] I trace the lines of Lydia's Crown While all the world is sleeping down You mapped the sky to keep me near But left me in the silence here The stars are bright But out of sight You are the ghost within the sphere [Post-Chorus] Oh, the celesta rings For everything That winter brings [Outro]
