歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Fog rolls thick across the bay Steam rises from a chipped mug Light is gray I give my heavy coat a tug Salt is biting at the glass Watching seasons pass [Verse] Dusty spines on wooden shelves Stories told by better men Secrets hidden by themselves Found once again A yellowed card from '89 Tracing every faded line [Chorus] Listen to the buoy bell Ring for things we never tell Smallest of sparks Inside the dark Strangers sent a bit of grace To this hollow place [Hook] Paper hearts and iron light Keep me through the night [Post-Chorus] Ink on the tide Nowhere to hide Warmth in the cold Stories left untold [Verse] "Safe travels" in blue ink From a girl in some old port Gave me time to sit and think Time is short She didn't know my name at all Held me up before the fall [Chorus] Listen to the buoy bell Ring for things we never tell Smallest of sparks Inside the dark Strangers sent a bit of grace To this hollow place [Bridge] (Harmonica trill) The ocean takes but it gives back Light through every little crack I am a ghost inside the tower Counting every passing hour I am rich in paper scraps And messy coastal maps [Hook] Paper hearts and iron light Keep me through the night [Chorus] Listen to the buoy bell Ring for things we never tell Smallest of sparks Inside the dark Strangers sent a bit of grace To this hollow place [Post-Chorus] Ink on the tide Nowhere to hide Warmth in the cold Stories left untold [Outro]
