Postcards from the Tide

[Intro]
[Verse]
The attic is cold
Where the secrets are told
Through the salt-fogged pane
Comes the sound of the rain
I find the first card
Where the breathing is hard
Seventy years of the gale
In a box, thin and frail
[Pre-Chorus]
The harp starts to weep
While the lighthouse keepers sleep
Ink runs like a tear
Across every lost year
[Chorus]
Oh, the unsent storms
Taking beautiful forms
In the violet light
Of a midsummer night
Soft acceptance of grace
On her beautiful face
Love that never was spoken
In a circle unbroken
[Verse]
Bioluminescent crests
Where the lonely heart rests
The celesta rings out
Removing the doubt
Nylon strings on the shore
She don't pine anymore
Just a whisper of gold
In a story untold
[Pre-Chorus]
The alto flute sighs
Under violet skies
Ink runs like a tear
Across every lost year
[Chorus]
Oh, the unsent storms
Taking beautiful forms
In the violet light
Of a midsummer night
Soft acceptance of grace
On her beautiful face
Love that never was spoken
In a circle unbroken
[Bridge]
I am the daughter of mist
By the white water kissed
Inheriting all of her quiet
After the thunderous riot
The strings swell like a wave
For the love that she gave
[Chorus]
Oh, the unsent storms
Taking beautiful forms
In the violet light
Of a midsummer night
Soft acceptance of grace
On her beautiful face
Love that never was spoken
In a circle unbroken
[Post-Chorus]
Sorting the postcards alone
In a house made of stone
Sorting the postcards tonight
In the fading of light
[Outro]
