song Lanternlight

[Fugazi]

The last (?) single and video from Yesterwynde has been released at the same time as the album. This one features Floor first and foremost, as it's a gentle ballad with Troy adding a few vocals as well. The exterior scenes in the video may have been shot in Kitee, as per a tiny note in the corner of a picture in the CD booklet, while Floor's singing has been filmed in Helsinki.

LYRICS:

Gone is the hurt, the wait
Gone is the warmth of day
A stray boat saved, happy memories engraved
On into a velvety night
Beneath a lanternlight

Last night brought the heaviest of snows
Melting the songs of old
Tying the boat, write a new one soon
Sending me to the drowning moon
Far above a lanternlight

I'm in the light and flood
I'm in the four winds
I am the waves shaping pebbles flawless gems
I am the snow on your palm

I am the secret stream
Moss beneath your feet
I am you who climbed off of my back
Not long ago
A sheltered song in a world now gone
Petrichor
The timeless

Turn loose the swaying boat
Meltwater, sound of spring
I hear our song now, sung by the free
For a thousand more tomorrows
Of an incomplete weave
To the meadows I go
I’ll be waiting for you
Once upon a lanternlight

I walk now toward the trees
I am the secret stream
The night falling at my feet
Into the forest of Yesterwynde
