Light On The Lake

Описание: Lyrics - "Light On The Lake"

I keep my keys like little exits,
like I’m always half-unpacked.
The night shift lives under my eyelids,
blue-lit thoughts I can’t distract.
I take the road that avoids the town,
past the quiet, past the shake
and there you are, not even here,
but somehow waiting by the lake.

I don’t call it loneliness,
I call it getting home.
But my chest still does that thing it does
when the world feels overgrown.

There’s a light on the lake, not loud, not bright,
just steady enough to turn fear into night.
And it feels like you, how you never rush me,
how you make the silence easy to trust me.
I don’t need a cure, I don’t need to be great
I just need that calm light on the lake.

I used to think love was a high beam
something blazing, something sure.
But you’re more like a kitchen radio,
low and warm and durable.
You don’t fix me like a project,
You don’t fix me like a project,
you don’t ask me to explain
you just sit beside the weather
until it forgets my name.

And I’m bad at saying I need you,
so I say I’m going for a drive.
But my hands stop shaking faster
when I picture your eyes.

There’s a light on the lake, not loud, not bright,
just steady enough to turn fear into night.
And it feels like you, how you never rush me,
how you make the silence easy to trust me.
I don’t need a cure, I don’t need to be great
I just need that calm light on the lake.

Mmm, stay on
Mmm, stay on
Light on the lake
Hold on

Maybe love is just proof
you can breathe next to someone
without performing your peace.
Maybe it’s the small way you say my name
like it isn’t something I have to earn.
And if I’m honest
I’ve been scared of being happy,
like it’s a dare I’ll fail in public.
But you make it feel private.
You make it feel… possible.

I pull over where the pines lean in,
where the snow goes blue in the moon.
Engine ticks like a nervous clock
trying not to ruin the room.
And the lake holds one clean reflection
a line of light that won’t break
and I think, if there’s any forever
it’s this simple. It’s this awake.

There’s a light on the lake, not loud, not bright,
just steady enough to turn fear into night.
And it feels like you, how you don’t demand it,
how you make my worst days something I can stand with.
I don’t need a cure, I don’t need to be great
I just need that calm light on the lake.
