lyrics

to love the sea who loves the shore
when I’m the moon in her sky
this path’s a pier that has an end
you recover as I fade

the veil I wear is pale as dust
to hide the fear and the lust
I ask for stars to shield the day
and you recover as I fade

always out of reach, a sinking moon and rising sea
when the sun comes out, will you wait for me
motionless in day and I will draw you up
we'll revolve around each other until my light goes out

and in the dim our shadows kiss
they never meet, lest turn to glass
I must be brave, keep darkness lit
and retire all my thirst
to drink the sea as I see fit
you recover as my light fades

always out of reach, a sinking moon and rising sea
when the sun comes out, will you wait for me
motionless in day and I will draw you up
we'll revolve around each other until my light goes out
