歌词
[Intro] [Verse] The sun is low and red Crickets singing in their bed Through the long dry grass Watching the shadows pass In a crevice of the wall I found a secret small Tucked from the winter gale Paper thin and frail [Pre-Chorus] Salt on the edge like frost A century of being lost The ink is turning ghost Along this jagged coast [Chorus] Oh, the wonder of a hand Writing love across the sand Time is overlapping now Like a soft and quiet vow The light is gold upon the sea They are here inside of me [Verse] Dated nineteen-twenty-four Once pinned to a cabin door She wrote of the garden bloom And light in the attic room He spoke of the heavy tide And the longing held inside Gorse is yellow on the hill The world moves, I am still [Chorus] Oh, the wonder of a hand Writing love across the sand Time is overlapping now Like a soft and quiet vow The light is gold upon the sea They are here inside of me [Bridge] The foghorn calls from the deep While the weary lovers sleep A low and reed-like refrain Washing through the dust and rain Small hearts in a massive world Like a flag that is furled [Verse] I hold my lantern to the night But these words are a light Unremembered, soft, and sweet Where the earth and ocean meet I will leave them where found Safe in the holy ground Let the seabirds guard the page Through every coming age [Chorus] Oh, the wonder of a hand Writing love across the sand Time is overlapping now Like a soft and quiet vow The light is gold upon the sea They are here inside of me [Post-Chorus] Golden light on the stone Never truly alone Softly the water flows Where the wild yellow gorse grows [Outro]
