lyrics

Searching skies with tired eyes for bottles on the sea
Writes her soul on a page and sends it off to me
Her cheeks they glisten with the tears of a thousand failed tries
I reach into her dreams from mine to wipe them from her eyes

Though I’m far away it’ll be okay

Eyes are closed, minds alive with memories of we
Dreams are cruel, they beckon me with a face I long to see
Our hope it burns like fireflies, it flickers in the night
The dreams we share, searching the air to find our lover’s light

Though I’m far away it’ll be okay

Our hope it burns like fireflies, it flickers in the night
The dreams we share, searching the air to find our lover’s light
