Mist and Moonlight

Verse 1

Mist rolls in like memory

Cold and patient on the reeds

I walked the bank where lanterns died

Following the hollow reeds

Every breath a question mark

Every step a sinking thought

The water whispers names I knew

Names the morning has forgot

Pre-Chorus

They call me through the cattails

They call me where the fog breathes

Chorus

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Singing songs beneath the moon

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Pulling me toward the deep lagoon

Rise with the pale white mist

Dance on the water's skin

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Beckon me to let them in

Post-Chorus

Ooooh

Ooooh

Come to me

Come to me

Verse 2

Something brushed against my shoulder

Reaching fingers made of gray

Mother told me never follow

Shadows walking through the day

But the thrill of that old music

Makes my hollow heart ignight

I can hear them calling softer

Every time I lose the light

Pre-Chorus

They call me through the cattails

They call me where the fog breathes

Chorus

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Singing songs beneath the moon

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Pulling me toward the deep lagoon

Rise with the pale white mist

Dance on the water's skin

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Beckon me to let them in

Bridge

I am not running anymore

The water takes me like a hymn

Soft moss cradle my weary bones

Let the mist become my skin

Chorus

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Singing songs beneath the moon

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Pulling me toward the deep lagoon

Rise with the pale white mist

Dance on the water's skin

Ghosts of the foggy swamp

Beckon me to let them in

Post-Chorus

Ooooh

Ooooh

Come to me

Come to me
