From The Mourning After (2020) · track 5 of 11
Lyrics
I wish there was something I could give to you.
Something that I've never had before,
Something overdue.
Maybe this time will have will see us through?
Counting down the days until
This love I can pursue.
And I don't know when,
Anything that I've locked inside my head.
Will take the stage again,
Will you still be here when all is done and said?
I think about you all the time,
When the lights are down,
And the evening's mine,
I just wish I had a boat to take you away.
These nights they burn the darkest blue,
But I burn brighter just knowing you,
So by the moonlight we will sail away.
Sail away.
I wish there was more that I could say,
And I'm sorry but I might not be quite
The hero of your day.
But honestly I'm sure you'll find your way,
The world's an even bigger place,
And your heart grows every day.
And I don't know how,
I'll hit the ground and run but I'll work it out.
Then I will take a bow,
Another day completed beyond reasonable doubt.
And I think about you all the time,
When the lights are down,
And the evening's mine,
I just wish I had a boat to take you away.
These nights they burn the darkest blue,
But I burn brighter just knowing you,
So by the moonlight we will sail away.
So take all I am,
When there's nothing left, I might be worth a damn.
I think about you all the time,
When the lights are down,
And the evening's mine,
I just wish I had a boat to take you away.
These nights they burn the darkest blue,
But I burn brighter just knowing you,
So by the moonlight we will sail away.
