Lanterns on the Heather Road (Song) // Sea Shanty (w. Lyrics in description)

Описание: Lyrics by P. Skovgaard
----
Verse 1
Where the heather bends beneath our feet,
And the old stones hum in the rain,
We carried songs in battered chests,
And danced through loss and pain.
A fiddle cried by the harbour wall,
While the tide stole names we knew,
But the fire burned in every heart
That swore to start anew.

Pre-Chorus
Raise your glass to ghosts and glory,
To the roads that led us home

Chorus
Light the lanterns on the heather road,
Let them shine where the lost hearts go,
Sing the tales the wild winds told
Of broken kings and souls of gold.
If the night grows cold and the miles feel long,
We will carry each other on
With a flame, a drum, and a rebel song,
We were never alone.

Verse 2
There’s a girl who laughs like thunder rolls,
With stormlight in her eyes,
She trades her fears for silver strings
And truth for painted lies.
A sailor swears he’ll quit the sea,
But the waves still call his name,
So we drink to dreams we almost reached
And play the tavern game.

Pre-Chorus
Stamp your boots and wake the rafters,
Let the broken voices roam

Chorus
Light the lanterns on the heather road,
Let them shine where the lost hearts go,
Sing the tales the wild winds told
Of broken kings and souls of gold.
If the night grows cold and the miles feel long,
We will carry each other on
With a flame, a drum, and a rebel song,
We were never alone.

Bridge
Oh the drums will roll like distant thunder,
And the pipes will cry the dawn,
Every scar a map we wander,
Every goodbye a promise sworn.
So spin me ‘round where the tables shake,
Let the sorrow turn to flame
For every tear that the dark may take,
We will rise again.

Chorus
Light the lanterns on the heather road,
Let them blaze till the shadows run,
Sing it loud for the young and old,
For the battles lost and won.
If the world falls down and the sky turns wrong,
We’ll be louder than the storm
With a laugh, a cheer, and a fearless song,
We will be reborn.

Outro
So leave one light on the winding way,
For the souls still walking slow
There’s a seat, a fire, and a song to play…
And a home they’ll always know.
