Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Midnight on the silver sea Just the wooden boat and me Stars are hanging low and deep While the weary city sleeps Water lapping at the side Turning with the heavy tide Floating in the velvet dark Waiting for a tiny spark [Chorus] Glowing lights begin to rise Like a million tiny eyes Faint and golden in the blue Bringing back the world I knew Neon plankton in the deep Waking from a long-time sleep Softly bobbing in the swell Stories that I used to tell [Interlude] [Verse] Smell of jasmine in the hall Shadows dancing on the wall Summer peaches on the plate Swinging on the garden gate Red balloons against the sky Watching all the birds go by Warmth of tea inside a cup Never wanting to grow up [Chorus] Glowing lights begin to rise Like a million tiny eyes Faint and golden in the blue Bringing back the world I knew Neon plankton in the deep Waking from a long-time sleep Softly bobbing in the swell Stories that I used to tell [Bridge] Let the current take me home Through the salt and through the foam Gentle rhythm of the tide Nowhere left for me to hide Bowed vibraphone in the air Lifting up a silent prayer Wobbly synths begin to fold Turning silver into gold [Verse] Running through the tall green grass Watching all the seasons pass Tiny pebbles in my hand Sifting through the golden sand Mother humming in the night Keeping all the ghosts from sight Softest breath against my hair Knowing that the love is there [Chorus] Glowing lights begin to rise Like a million tiny eyes Faint and golden in the blue Bringing back the world I knew Neon plankton in the deep Waking from a long-time sleep Softly bobbing in the swell Stories that I used to tell [Outro]
