Plucked Memories

Verse 1

Stone

Cold salt

White waves wash

The tide takes the time

I stand where the land stops

Below me the grey water groans

The grey water sighs

The grey water calls

Chorus

He said goodbye

He said goodbye

Now sadness is my only friend

The moon is the ghost of his face

Hanging in my empty sky

Just the moon and the sea

Just the moon and me

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Far away

Oh oh oh

Cold and grey

Verse 2

Numb

Slow bleed

The years are thieves

Memory feathers plucked from wings

One by one they drift to the floor

He hides his eyes from my ghost

He hides his path

He hides his heart

Chorus

He said goodbye

He said goodbye

Now sadness is my only friend

The moon is the ghost of his face

Hanging in my empty sky

Just the moon and the sea

Just the moon and me

Bridge

I dance in dreams of long ago

Exiled on this distant shore

Broken

Forgotten

Alone

The salt on my cheeks is the ocean

The salt in my heart is the end

Chorus

He said goodbye

He said goodbye

Now sadness is my only friend

The moon is the ghost of his face

Hanging in my empty sky

Just the moon and the sea

Just the moon and me

Outro

Distant shore

Distant shore

Falling

Fading

Gone
