Harbor Of No Return

[Intro] [Radio Static] “Signal received…” “All frequencies accounted for…” “Final approach authorized…” [High-pitched laughter] “Welcome home…” ⸻ [Verse 1] Moon hang low like a coin on a chain Black tide roll but it don’t feel the same Every dead channel buzzin’ again Every old whisper callin’ old friends Steel sing soft through the salt and the spray Ghost light dance where the deep waters sway Compass quit somewhere miles behind Now the sea do the steering tonight ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] Saw a thousand lanterns under the foam None of ‘em wanderin’ Every one headed home ⸻ [Chorus] Harbor of No Return Fire on the water and the watchfires burn No map left to read No lesson left to learn Funny thing about forever… Nobody waits their turn At the Harbor of No Return ⸻ [Verse 2] Names drift past in a river of gold Some look new Some look centuries old Every letter glowin’ under the wake Like the ocean got receipts to make Old ship groan but she sailin’ proud Whole crew laughin’ way too loud Foghorn moan from the other side Sounded like the sea itself replied ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] No captain’s chart No warning bell Only that pull that everybody felt ⸻ [Chorus] Harbor of No Return Fire on the water and the watchfires burn No map left to read No lesson left to learn Funny thing about forever… Nobody waits their turn At the Harbor of No Return ⸻ [Bridge] [Radio Voice] “Every promise…” “Every secret…” “Every prayer lost at sea…” “Now arriving…” [High-pitched wicked laughter] [Steel drums echo] [Bass drops] ⸻ [Verse 3] Far off docks made of moonlight and bone Built from things folks thought were gone Every wave carried stories ashore Nobody askin’ what happened before Anchor chains started rattlin’ slow Like they already knew where to go Water shimmered black and blue Then the harbor finally came into view ⸻ [Final Chorus] Harbor of No Return All the missing frequencies return Names in the current Golden letters twist and turn Funny thing about forever… Everybody gets a turn At the Harbor of No Return ⸻ [Outro] [Steel drums only] [Radio Static] “Signal lost…” “Signal found…” “Welcome home…” [Distant wicked laughter]
