Where the Warm Wind Turns

Текст песни

[Verse 1] We packed one bag by the kitchen door Two paper maps on the wooden floor You drew a circle around the coast Said, “Pick a road and let’s see where it goes” [Pre-Chorus] The train rolled out with a silver sound Your shoulder found mine when we left town No grand plan, no reason to stay Just your hand pulling mine away [Chorus] Take me where the warm wind turns Where the little harbor lanterns burn We’ll share one peach, miss the last train Laugh so hard we forget our names If tomorrow asks where we have been Say we found a door and wandered in With your jacket on my chair And salt still tangled in your hair [Verse 2] We bought blue postcards from a corner shop A lemon soda and a borrowed mop The room upstairs had a crooked frame But every window called us by name [Pre-Chorus] The afternoon folded into gold You told the same joke, I still laughed bold No perfect scene, no polished view Just every small thing brighter with you [Chorus] Take me where the warm wind turns Where the little harbor lanterns burn We’ll share one peach, miss the last train Laugh so hard we forget our names If tomorrow asks where we have been Say we found a door and wandered in With your jacket on my chair And salt still tangled in your hair [Bridge] When the photographs lose their blue I’ll remember the sound of you Calling from the market square “Come on, there’s another road out there” [Final Chorus] Take me where the warm wind turns Where the little harbor lanterns burn We’ll share one peach, miss the last train Laugh so hard we forget our names If tomorrow asks where we have been Say we found a door and wandered in With your jacket on my chair And salt still tangled in your hair [Outro] One bag by the kitchen door Two maps waiting on the floor Anywhere is somewhere new When the road begins with you
