[Intro] A low lantern by the road... [Verse 1] I left my coat beside the door The rain came in, then asked for more A little light refused to die Like your name under the sky [Pre-Chorus] Do not hurry, voice of mine Keep the ache below the line [Chorus] Low lantern, lead me slowly Through the rooms I used to know If the night still remembers Let it sing in a warmer tone [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] The old guitar was out of tune But it held on to half the moon I sang the words I could not send To find my way to you again [Bridge] No sudden climb, no broken cry Only a long breath passing by Let the low voice carry pain Like dark wood after rain [Final Chorus] Low lantern, lead me slowly Through the rooms I used to know If the night still remembers Let it sing in a warmer tone [Outro] A low lantern by the road...
