Out by the far horizon

[Intro]
Steam on the pane
Motionless sky
Breath held low
Time won’t begin

[Verse 1]
I know you’re listening
Past the ribs of this old ship
Tethered to cold ground
Are you moving?

The ache, it doesn’t say much
I finger the string – soft, sharp
Maybe you’re a distant hour
Maybe you’re a sound in snow

[Chorus]
Out by the far horizon
Where I can’t see you
Out by the far horizon
Where you wait
Out by the far horizon
I call out, but you
Out by the far horizon
Don’t call back
Out by the far horizon
Can you hear me now?
Out by the far horizon
Out by the far horizon

[Verse 2]
Bare words left ringing
That steady drone—unsaid, unanswered
Hands cold on the keys
Is this distance you or me?

The wind bites wires
Heavy and unsure
Once we named these stars
Now I can’t make out the form

[Chorus]
Out by the far horizon
Where I can’t see you
Out by the far horizon
Where you wait
Out by the far horizon
I call out, but you
Out by the far horizon
Don’t call back
Out by the far horizon
Can you hear me now?
Out by the far horizon
Out by the far horizon

[Bridge]
If I stand and play
If I sing your name
Does it reach you there?
Am I only sound, only string and air?

[Chorus]
Out by the far horizon
Where I can’t see you
Out by the far horizon
Where you wait
Out by the far horizon
I call out, but you
Out by the far horizon
Don’t call back
Out by the far horizon
Can you hear me now?
Out by the far horizon
Out by the far horizon

[Outro]
(Out by the far horizon)
(Out by the far horizon)
(Hold on, hold on)
[Instrumental ends]
