Lyrics

The Symphony

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Wooden floors, wooden floors whisper

And they creak under your sockless feet

A secret door, a door undiscovered

You knock so gently in case you're heard

A record plays a song that you've not heard

It is perfect, it is home

Everything, now everything's different

It is sweeter on your tongue

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream

And the engine's more a sigh than a scream

And your ghosts look more like angels from there

And the coast comes like a raft of warm air

[x2]

A symphony, slow music of longing

Plays in movements inside your head

There are no ghosts, no ghosts that can shake you

Like they used to, anymore

Cause you can see the road ahead in your dream

And the engine's more a sigh than a scream

And your ghosts look more like angels from there

And the coast comes like a raft of warm air
