[Intro] [Verse] Gray wool in the cedar chest Moth-eaten at the very best Heavy with the scent of salt Time has come to a sudden halt I lift the shawl from the dust Ancient pins beginning to rust [Pre-Chorus] My fingers trace the weave It’s harder to believe Sea lavender falls to the floor From a life lived long before [Chorus] Oh, the ocean is a thief Stealing joy and giving grief But in this fabric, love is held While the lighthouse lantern swelled Faded ink and sea-borne grace I find his smile in this place [Post-Chorus] Lavender and brine Love across the line Lavender and brine Lost within the pine [Verse] Salt-crusted paper, thin and white Written by a kerosene light He promised he’d be home by dawn Before the summer days were gone But the gale blew fierce and cold Leaving stories never to be told [Pre-Chorus] Pearl buttons worn by the tide Secrets that she used to hide The ink is bleeding on the page Frozen in a different age [Chorus] Oh, the ocean is a thief Stealing joy and giving grief But in this fabric, love is held While the lighthouse lantern swelled Faded ink and sea-borne grace I find his smile in this place [Bridge] The foghorn hums a low refrain Echoing across the main Celesta rings like falling rain Washing out the old-world pain She waited by the window sill While the world grew dark and still [Breakdown] Nylon strings and bated breath Love is stronger than a death Nylon strings and bated breath Love is stronger than a death [Chorus] Oh, the ocean is a thief Stealing joy and giving grief But in this fabric, love is held While the lighthouse lantern swelled Faded ink and sea-borne grace I find his smile in this place [Post-Chorus] Lavender and brine Love across the line Lavender and brine Lost within the pine [Outro]
