The Lamb You Lost

(album: Love Letter For Fire - 2016)

Oh the pin fixing the sea
Was a pillar in my spine
Until the tempest embraced me
In its still and quiet eye

When my hand reached out to skim
Bluer water than your eyes
I was ripped into the spin
I was torn into the tide

Hear the waves hit the cliff
Like our names engraved
Silhouetted you and I kissing

Moon in a tidal lock
And I was born to love you
Like the king who gave his name to Carolina
Know when the sky is dark
The light will come tomorrow
And the lamb you lost is following behind you
There's a lamb you lost still following behind you

Feel the cold on the cliff
With our names engraved

There is music in the sea
And we swim into the sound
Far adrift like I am free
When your voice turns me around

Any heart could burst its shell
Love is made for broken things
Bring your hands to know me well
Know my heart for what it sings

There are names on the cliff
That the waves won't take
Silhouetted you and I kissing
