Harbor

FULL LYRICS

Full lyrics

The night wind is like you
drawing quietly near

I wait for a word
even if it is only a sigh

All the stars are there
shining on the thoughts I cannot hide

The whole world has gone away
leaving only your name

I cannot capture your eyes in words
but I remember the light when you smiled

Every breath of wind feels as though you were here
waking the harbor’s sleeping waves

My longing waits at the harbor
The tide comes and goes, but it will not forget

Across mountains and seas, across light-years
it still turns towards the place where you are

You are the words left unsaid each night
the glimmer left behind before dawn wakes

If I can never reach you in this life
my longing will remain at the harbor

The wind returns from somewhere far away
carrying an answer that never found a reply

I write your name across
every sunset I never sent

The crowd has gone, the lights have dimmed
Only the tide can speak for me

I cannot see the distant place where you are
but I know for whom the night grows long

If every wind could be a reunion
I would wait here until daybreak

My longing waits at the harbor
The tide comes and goes, but it will not forget

Across mountains and seas, across light-years
it still turns towards the place where you are

You are the words left unsaid each night
the glimmer left behind before dawn wakes

If I can never reach you in this life
my longing will remain at the harbor

One day even starlight will grow old
and the sea will forget its way

If the world brings no further word of you
I will watch over you in the wind

My longing waits at the harbor
The tide comes and goes, still unwilling to forget

Across mountains and seas, across light-years
it still turns towards the place where you are

You are the words left unsaid each night
the glimmer left behind as dawn begins to wake

Even if the whole world has gone away
my longing will remain at the harbor

The night wind is like you
drawing quietly near

I am still waiting
for the sound of that sigh
