Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Like a new moon arising
From now on
I will lean into the reason of the seasons as they come
There'll be no surprises
Now she's gone
[Chorus]
And we almost made it
But it was clear all along
All the truth I tasted
Was only ever in a song
All the time I wasted
In the hope that I would belong
[Verse 2]
There was a white pheasant sighted
Off the coast
It came close, then abided with the things that I love most
And there I was invited
A heavenly host
[Chorus]
And we almost made it
It was clear all along
All the truth I tasted
Was only ever in a song
All the time I wasted
In the hope that I would belong
[Bridge]
I know when the heartache started
That was when the hope departed
Somewhere in the wilting weeds
She was right there all along
[Verse 3]
From a ship out on the water
I heard your call
Like a siren singing softly, it resounded in the haar
And when I crashed on your rocks
It was the best story of all
[Chorus]
And we almost made it
And it was clear all along
All the truth we tasted
Was only ever in a song
All the time we wasted
In the hope that we would belong
