Lyrics
Intro
Oh oh
Oh-oh-oh
Verse 1
Silver birds trace a line
Through the blue
Watch the tide pull away
From the shore
I found a locket in the sand
Heavy heart inside my hand
Yesterday was a dream
Left behind
Wait for the rain to clear
Just a sign
Pre-Chorus
Counting every grain of time
Searching for a reason why
Before the daylight fades to gray
Let the moment slip away
Chorus
Breathe in the morning light
Hold on until it's right
Building castles in the air
Hoping that you might be there
Lost in a kingdom of paper and dust
Everything falls if we lose all our trust
Oh I'm calling you home
Back where the wild flowers grow
Verse 2
Stars start to blink awake
Up above
Streets turn to quiet ghosts
In the dark
Tracing names on the glass
Watch the heavy shadows pass
Nothing remains the same
Not the moon
Winter is coming here
Far too soon
Pre-Chorus
Counting every grain of time
Searching for a reason why
Before the daylight fades to gray
Let the moment slip away
Chorus
Breathe in the morning light
Hold on until it's right
Building castles in the air
Hoping that you might be there
Lost in a kingdom of paper and dust
Everything falls if we lose all our trust
Oh I'm calling you home
Back where the wild flowers grow
Bridge
Maybe the mountains will crumble to sea
Maybe the person I wanted to be
Is buried in pages
Or lost for the ages
Locked in a cell with the golden key
Waiting for someone to set me free
Chorus
Breathe in the morning light
Hold on until it's right
Building castles in the air
Hoping that you might be there
Lost in a kingdom of paper and dust
Everything falls if we lose all our trust
Oh I'm calling you home
Back where the wild flowers grow
Hook
Breathe in
Breathe out
Turn the whole world inside out
Breathe in
Breathe out
Oh-oh-oh
