[Intro]
[Verse]
Brass rings turn in the dark
Frayed silk marks the page
Candlelight throws a spark
Locked in this gilded cage
I trace the leaded glass
Watching the hours pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Ink stains on my thumb
My heart is beating numb
The bassoon hums a low refrain
I call out your name in vain
[Chorus]
Oh, Cassiopeia, guide him home
Across the salt and bitter foam
I map the sky in silver thread
To bring you to my lonely bed
The stars are cold but they are true
I'm searching for a path to you
[Verse]
Crumpled parchment on the floor
Unsent words for evermore
Viola da gamba softly sighs
Underneath the velvet skies
Did the currents pull you deep?
While the silent planets sleep?
[Pre-Chorus]
Shadows stretch upon the wall
I wait for the ocean's call
My astrolabe is set to north
To bring your spirit safely forth
[Chorus]
Oh, Cassiopeia, guide him home
Across the salt and bitter foam
I map the sky in silver thread
To bring you to my lonely bed
The stars are cold but they are true
I'm searching for a path to you
[Bridge]
Glockenspiel rings like the frost
Counting all the time we lost
The choir chants a hollow prayer
Hanging in the midnight air
One degree to the east
Tame the wild and hungry beast
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Oh, Cassiopeia, guide him home
Across the salt and bitter foam
I map the sky in silver thread
To bring you to my lonely bed
The stars are cold but they are true
I'm searching for a path to you
[Post-Chorus]
Wait for the morning light
End this long and lonely night
Keep the meridian straight
I will sit and wait
[Outro]
