Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Oak leaves brush the leaded glass Shadows stretch across the grass Dust motes dance in golden light Fading sun before the night Ink and paper, scent of pine Waiting for a single line [Pre-Chorus] The spinet plays a lonely air I feel you in the empty chair Crumpled pages on the floor Knocking at my silent door [Chorus] Oh, the waves are rising high Underneath an amber sky Though we never truly met You are someone I can't forget Distant friend across the sea Write a world just for me [Post-Chorus] Just for me Wait and see [Verse] Embers glow a softest red Words that Virginia once said "I see a ring" within the tide Nowhere left for us to hide Sealing wax and silk ribbon Secrets kept and never given [Pre-Chorus] Alto flute begins to sigh As the autumn birds fly by Every letter is a spark Glowing softly in the dark [Chorus] Oh, the waves are rising high Underneath an amber sky Though we never truly met You are someone I can't forget Distant friend across the sea Write a world just for me [Bridge] Harp strings hum a Celtic tune Underneath the rising moon The oboe sings a breathy prayer Floating on the autumn air Are you real or just a dream? Gliding down a silver stream [Verse] Nineteen-twenty-four is gone Waiting for the early dawn Percival is far away In the light of yesterday But the hope is quiet here Holding everything so dear [Chorus] Oh, the waves are rising high Underneath an amber sky Though we never truly met You are someone I can't forget Distant friend across the sea Write a world just for me [Post-Chorus] Just for me Wait and see [Outro]
