Departure Song

In the hold
When there's no space left between our feet
Dissolving our steps wash my slates to blank
In safe harbours I'll be found

What was left behind
Across the mist the least of you
I'm losing it beneath the waves

Suddenly the water reaches out and takes me home
However long it takes for us to be
Where the winds sigh differently

Lately I find myself lost in the dreams of our pasts
If you could see me now
You would see me differently

Lately I find myself lost in the dreams of our pasts
If you could see me now
You would see me differently

Lately I find myself lost in the dreams of our pasts
If you could see me now
You would see me differently

Like the stem of the meranti
Let my prayers calm the seas
(You won't last, you won't last long)

Suddenly the water reaches out
How did I get this far?
The planks just trees my brothers planted
Oh how much further is your coast?

Lately I find myself lost in the dreams of our pasts
If you could see me now
You would see me differently

Lately I find myself lost in the dreams of our pasts
If you could see me now
You would see me differently

Tell me why all of my sons oh they leave for new skies
If you'd have stayed a while
You'll find that there's enough for three
(You would see me differently)

Tell me why the same red earth feels so much more alive
If you could see me now
You'd know why I crossed the sea
