[Intro - waves, soft guitar, distant party sounds] Hey Is that yours? Out past the foam Something’s coming back to shore [Verse 1] I wrote a little song when the summer was young Put it in a bottle with a note half-sung Corked it with a dream and a little bit of doubt Threw it to the waves when the lights went out It drifted past the pier, past the bonfire glow Past the little beach bar where the old songs go Now the tide rolls in and the stars look new There’s something shining in the blue [Pre-Chorus] Salt on the glass moon on the line I hear that melody coming back in time [Chorus] There’s a bottle on the blue with an old song inside Floating back to you on a summer high tide Shake the sand off the beat let the chorus shine through Tonight we make it new that bottle on the blue [Post-Chorus] Bottle, bottle on the blue Old little song coming back brand new Bottle, bottle on the blue I sent it out, it came back to you [Verse 2] It picked up a rhythm from a boat in the bay A little steel drum from a wave that played A bassline bump from the boardwalk lights And a tan from the sun on a hundred nights Now it sounds less shy, now it moves more bright Got a neon little sparkle in the poolside night Everybody on the sand like, play that tune The ocean sent a remix under the moon [Pre-Chorus 2] Salt on the glass stars in the groove The past came dancing back with something to prove [Chorus] There’s a bottle on the blue with an old song inside Floating back to you on a summer high tide Shake the sand off the beat let the chorus shine through Tonight we make it new that bottle on the blue [Bridge - warmer, nostalgic] Maybe it was simple Maybe it was small Maybe it was just a voice trying not to fall But the sea kept the feeling and the tide kept the spark Now it’s glowing like a lantern coming home after dark [Final Chorus - full party lift] There’s a bottle on the blue with an old song inside Floating back to you on a summer high tide Shake the sand off the beat let the chorus shine through Tonight we make it new that bottle on the blue [Outro] Bottle, bottle on the blue Old little song coming back brand new Bottle, bottle on the blue I sent it out it came back to you
