I'm still searching for some city by the sea
The one behind my eyes when I lay down to sleep
I've been chasing my dream across the night
The place I'll feel at peace, the only place that's mine
I've spent too many nights smelling like cigarettes and beer
And I'm longing for that place where the air would be clear
I wake up again with this chill in my bones
And it feels awful lonely but it feels a lot like home
Been walking every coastline, just haven't found her yet
Wherever you are dear, could you give me a sign
Could you write it in smoke, could you leave on the light
I can feel her there, soft and glimmering
Dancing on a wire, lights on swelling seas
Constellations guide where this broken coast will lead
But the waters have been rising and she couldn't wait for me
Been walking every coastline, just haven't found her yet
Wherever you are dear, could you give me a sign
Could you write it in smoke, could you leave on the light
Reaching up like holy hands, minarets from shifting sands
Calling me to come home
A beating heart of stone, healer make me whole
The only thing I've loved but never known
So wherever you are dear, could you give me a sign
Could you write it in smoke, could you leave on the light
Wherever you are dear, could you give me a sign
Could you write it in smoke, could you leave on the light
Could you leave on the light
I'm still searching for some city by the sea
The one behind my eyes when I lay down to sleep
