Memory rushes in
Then washes you away
I am losing you to the sea
I'll break from the weight of my mind
But your ghost I will gladly bear
And with all your grief in my arms
I will labor by singing light
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
If you had a single flaw
You just could not last forever, could you?
You just could not last for me
Then washes you away
I am losing you to the sea
I'll break from the weight of my mind
But your ghost I will gladly bear
And with all your grief in my arms
I will labor by singing light
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
I'll keep my lanterns lit
If you had a single flaw
You just could not last forever, could you?
You just could not last for me
