[Intro] Raise the cup, bar the door Boots are ringing on the floor [Verse 1] Rain comes hard on the harbor stones Salt in the coat, but we’re not alone Mara keeps watch by the candle flame Three old coins and a borrowed name [Pre-Chorus] When the black hill calls from beyond the pines We answer back with a fistful of rhymes [Chorus] Hey now, turn the table! Stamp till the rafters shake Pour for the ones who wandered Pour for the vows we break Hey now, loud and able! Sing till the crows take flight A dark road bends before us But this cup is burning bright [Verse 2] Rope-burn hands and a weathered face A red-haired fool with a reckless grace He swore the sea had a heart of coal She stole his knife and she stole his soul [Pre-Chorus] When the cold moon hangs over heather and stone No one in this room drinks on their own [Chorus] Hey now, turn the table! Stamp till the rafters shake Pour for the ones who wandered Pour for the vows we break Hey now, loud and able! Sing till the crows take flight A dark road bends before us But this cup is burning bright [Bridge] One for the sister who crossed the moor Two for the brother who came back poor Three for the promise beneath the thorn Four for the child not yet born [Breakdown] Clap your hands, heel to heel Tell me what your heart can feel Clap your hands, heel to heel Let the old floorboards reveal [Final Chorus] Hey now, turn the table! Stamp till the rafters shake Pour for the ones who wandered Pour for the vows we break Hey now, loud and able! Sing till the crows take flight A dark road bends before us But this cup is burning bright [Outro] Raise the cup, bar the door We’ll be louder than the storm
