歌詞

[Intro]
[Verse]
Salt-crusted iron on the spiral stair
You stand there with your long brown hair
Seventeen years and a heavy silence
Outside the waves are showing violence
I hand you a wrench and an oily rag
You look at the coast and your shoulders sag
[Verse]
The glass is cracked in the Fresnel lens
We’re making do and we’re making amends
The thunder rolls like a heavy drum
Waiting for the feeling to finally come
Rubbing the grime from the copper plate
Trying to fix what we left to fate
[Pre-Chorus]
The wind howls through the granite wall
I catch your eyes before you fall
The cider’s hot on the cold stone floor
We ain’t the ghosts we were before
[Chorus]
So let the beam cut the heavy grey
Wash all the bitter years away
It’s a small light for a big sea
But it’s enough for you and me
Yeah, it’s a second chance at dawn
To keep the fire burning on
[Post-Chorus]
Keep it burning on
Till the dark is gone
Keep it burning on
In the early dawn
[Verse]
Day two and the rain is a silver sheet
You found the rhythm and you found the beat
Polishing brass till the metal glows
That’s how a family story goes
You ask about the ships I used to guide
I see the boy who used to hide
[Pre-Chorus]
The wind howls through the granite wall
I catch your eyes before you fall
The cider’s hot on the cold stone floor
We ain’t the ghosts we were before
[Chorus]
So let the beam cut the heavy grey
Wash all the bitter years away
It’s a small light for a big sea
But it’s enough for you and me
Yeah, it’s a second chance at dawn
To keep the fire burning on
[Bridge]
The gears are grinding, the oil is thick
Strike the match on the kerosene wick
The storm is screaming, the world is black
But there ain’t no way we’re turning back
Lift the lever, watch it turn
We got a lot of life to learn
[Solo]
[Chorus]
So let the beam cut the heavy grey
Wash all the bitter years away
It’s a small light for a big sea
But it’s enough for you and me
Yeah, it’s a second chance at dawn
To keep the fire burning on
[Chorus]
So let the beam cut the heavy grey
Wash all the bitter years away
It’s a small light for a big sea
But it’s enough for you and me
Yeah, it’s a second chance at dawn
To keep the fire burning on
[Outro]
