I write lyrics, I sell with full rights, however writer credit is always appreciated
Streetlights blur to streaks of gold
Another day another story told
This city sleeps but I am awake
For goodness sake
My thoughts they drift they softly sway
Like smoke rings in the fading day
Midnight serenade
A sweet parade
Of whispers in the dark
Leaving its mark
Saxophone cries a lonely tune
Underneath the silver moon
Each note a sigh a gentle plea
Just for me
Some folks chase the sun so bright
I prefer the quiet night
Where shadows dance
Four rusty trawlers cutting through the spray
Bow smashing whitecaps on a steel-grey day
Nets stowed tight, the days Mackerel secured
But the North Seas angry, howling like a war
Engines roar salt burns the crews tired eyes
Deck plates jumping under stormy skies
One wrong swell could flip us send us down below
But we are brothers on the water nobody is letting go
Thunder cracks the radios gone dead
But every heart beats home inside our heads
Homeward bound Homeward bound
Small fleet rising we are glory-bound
Waves can roar and the wind can scream
We are unbreakable we chase the dream
Hey Hey Homeward bound
Hearts on fire never backing down
From the wild sea straight into the light
We are bringing every boat home tonight
Rain like bullets decks awash with foam
Captains yelling orders steady as they come
Little kids are waiting on the harbour wall
Mums with torches praying through it all
We have fished these waters since our fathers time
Turned every hardship into victory rhyme
Storm can not break what family ties have made
A small fleet heroes that are never afraid
Homeward bound Homeward bound
Small fleet rising we are glory-bound
Waves can roar and the wind can scream
We are unbreakable we chase the dream
Hey Hey Homeward bound
Hearts on fire never backing down
From the wild sea straight into the light
We are bringing every boat home tonight
Let the ocean test us let it do its worst
We laugh in its face we were born for this verse
Homeward bound Homeward bound
Small fleet rising we are glory-bound
Waves can roar and the wind can scream
We are unbreakable we chase the dream
Hey Hey Homeward bound
Every trawler safe and sound
Port lights burning a welcome sight
We made it home we won the fight tonight
I stood on the bank and I watched you decide
Which version of sorry felt easiest tonight
You folded your promises starched them and pressed
Then laid them so carefully over my chest
I counted the stitches you tore when you left
Each thread was a morning I woke up bereft
And still still I kept the last piece in my hand
Like maybe the ruin could still understand
But love is not patient
And hope is not kind
When the clock has been screaming
And you are running out of time
The bridge is already burning my love
The timbers are glowing like blood from above
You can scream forgiveness you can swear you will return
But the rivers forgotten the way bridges burn
I am not asking for mercy I am not begging for air
I am just telling the fire you can not find me there
The bridge is already burning
and darling I lit the match
You said We are just children who made adult cries
As if growing older excuses the lies
I carved out my heart like a birthday surprise
And you thanked me politely then sharpened your knives
I am tired of haunting the rooms you once filled
Tired of echoes that bleed when they are killed
So take your tomorrows your maybe next year
I am done disappearing so you can stay here
Cause love is not patient
And grief is not blind
When the ashes are singing
They are singing goodbye
The bridge is already burning my love
The timbers are glowing like blood from above
You can scream forgiveness you can swear you will return
But the rivers forgotten the way bridges burn
I am not asking for mercy I am not begging for air
I am just telling the fire you can not find me there
The bridge is already burning
And darling I am finally free
So go build your castles on opposite shores
Collect all the pieces of girls you ignore
I will stay on this bank till the last ember fades
And smile at the smoke as it carries my name
The bridge
was already burning
Streetlights blur to streaks of gold
Another day another story told
This city sleeps but I am awake
For goodness sake
My thoughts they drift they softly sway
Like smoke rings in the fading day
Midnight serenade

And smile at the smoke as it carries my name
The bridge
was already burning
Ooh baby yeah
Feel it in the air tonight
Snows been falling but I dont feel the cold
Your touch is like a slow burn
turning winter into gold
with the Tree lights dancing softly
painting shadows on the wall
But the only glow I am chasing
is the fire in your soul
We have walked through stormy seasons lost and found our way
Now the night is whispering everything we couldnt say
It is love on Christmas Eve baby
Love on Christmas Eve
Your arms wrapped tight around me that is all I will ever need
Love on Christmas Eve yeah
Love on Christmas Eve
Heart wide open set my spirit free
Ooh ooh ooh can you not see
This is where we are meant to be
Love on Christmas Eve
Last year felt like forever miles between our hearts
Now you are here pulling me closer tearing every wall apart
No fancy gifts no ribbons could ever match this high
your whisper in the dark as i look deep in your eyes
Time slows down when you hold me world fades into a dream
Every beat of your heart is louder than your silent scream
It is love on Christmas Eve baby
Love on Christmas Eve
Your arms wrapped tight around me that is all I will ever need
Love on Christmas Eve yeah
Love on Christmas Eve
Heart wide open set my spirit free
Ooh ooh ooh can you not see
This is where we are meant to be
Love on Christmas Eve
Let the fire crackle low let the whole world disappear
I just wanna feel you breathing know that you are still here
Through the laughter through the tears we cried alone before
This Christmas Eve I am giving you my forevermore
It is love on Christmas Eve baby
Love on Christmas Eve
Your arms wrapped tight around me that is all I will ever need
Love on Christmas Eve yeah
Love on Christmas Eve
Heart wide open set my spirit free
Ooh ooh ooh can you not see
This is where we are meant to be
Love on Christmas Eve
Love on Christmas Eve
Love on Christmas Eve
Yeah this Christmas
it is you and me
Ooh forever
