lyrics

the sun keeps burning
as i'm waiting for your ghost
to arrive in the evening
following the final glow

there's a light that's restless
there's a signal in the noise
mama bird home to her nest
bearing marks of foreign soils

and though the leaves keep growing and falling
laying bare the design of the bones of the forest
i never thought this moon would take a life

but do we last forever
do the feathers of our wings
lift up weakened bodies
animate their messages

what if i don't believe it
am i turning you away
what of the visions and mysteries
that i can't seem to escape

i always thought my life would be
a puzzle i could unlock i tried (that's what you taught me)
but since the day you died it hurts to hope
to hold your hand once more before you go

the sun keeps burning
as i'm waiting for your ghost
to arrive in the evening
following the final glow

the sun keeps burning
no it won't seem to go down
there's something it's preserving
holding back from flaring out

the sun keeps burning
and it will for very long
the horizons blurring
wish i could play you this song
