歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] Silk against the stone Wandering all alone The silver moon is high Beneath the velvet sky My slippers touch the dew Searching for the clue I hold the parchment tight In the hollow light [Pre-Chorus] Ballroom candles start to fade Deep within the emerald shade I hear the harpsichord play low Where the frozen shadows grow [Chorus] Oh, salt upon the page Locked inside this gilded cage Your ghost is in the gale Behind a tattered sail I hold the ink so dear Wishing you were here My heart is lost at sea Come back home to me [Post-Chorus] (Breathy vocal swell) (Harpsichord trill) [Verse] Hedges tall and green A world that’s never seen The topiary beasts At the midnight feasts The ink is turning grey Wash the grief away I trace the lines you wrote In your navy coat [Pre-Chorus] Cornet sounds a lonely plea Far across the bitter sea The celesta rings so cold For a story never told [Chorus] Oh, salt upon the page Locked inside this gilded cage Your ghost is in the gale Behind a tattered sail I hold the ink so dear Wishing you were here My heart is lost at sea Come back home to me [Bridge] One turn left and then a right Lost inside the dead of night Timpani like distant thunder Pulling all my spirit under Did the water take your breath? Is this love or is it death? [Solo] (String trio and harpsichord counterpoint) [Chorus] Oh, salt upon the page Locked inside this gilded cage Your ghost is in the gale Behind a tattered sail I hold the ink so dear Wishing you were here My heart is lost at sea Come back home to me [Post-Chorus] Salt upon the page In this gilded cage Lost at sea Home to me [Outro]
