Lanterns on the Lake - CAELIS Babylon
The night still knows my every step
The ceiling cracked, the words I kept
The ghosts of faces I let fade
The hearts I hurt, the love I strayed
Every sorry stuck inside
Every truth I tried to hide
The silence built, the echoes grew
Till all that's left was me and you
When the night learns to forgive
It teaches me to live
Not to erase what I've done wrong
But to let my heart belong
What if I'd stayed, what if I'd tried
What if I'd said what fear denied
Tomorrow came but not the change
The words were late, the love estranged
In mirrors I avoid my eye
I see the boy who never tries
But under shame a whisper small
You're not beyond repair at all
When the night learns to forgive
It tells me I still live
Through broken dreams and sleepless skies
I find myself beneath the lies
I know I say you failed, you fell
But you were scared, I see it well
I meet my eyes, I take the breath
And free the heart I've kept in death
When the night learns to forgive
It lets the morning into live
The shadows don't accuse me now
They sit beside and show me how
When the night learns to forgive
It gives back what regret can give
The dark still hums but now I see
The peace I owe begins with me
No thunder breaks
No heavens part
Just quiet healing in my heart
You teased me once beneath the sun
When will our wedding pictures come
I laughed and said someday you'll see
I'll take the one meant just for me
We dreamed of white and falling blooms
Of laughter echoing through the rooms
But fate had plans I couldn't chase
Now I see you in every face
The past still speaks but soft, not grim
And in forgiving me I learn to begin
Lanterns whisper on the lake
Paid by hearts and hands that shake
Once we stood where wishes burned
Now I'm here, the tides have turned
We grow old, our roads stay
But forever drifted away
Now I stand where echoes gleam
Holding silence, not a dream
Lanterns on the lake
Floating what I couldn't say
Once was love, now it's grace
Rising slow, then drifts away
Children laugh, the night breeze goes
Stories new and mine grown old
I bow one more, my hands still shake
A wish to mend, not to remake
No comeback, no start again
Just a word to ease the pain
On the page I softly trace
Feeling small but taking place
Lanterns on the lake
Carry what I need to say
Not for love to find its way
Just for peace to learn to stay
I forever burned but it was bright
And I still thank the sky that night
Your light once rose beside my hand
Now mine alone still understand
Lanterns on the lake
Tiny prayers of when remains
We all rise, we all fade
Still the light remembers names
Lanterns on the lake
Every loss the dawn will take
My wish tonight is not escape
Just a heart that learns its shape
The night moves on, the water glows
Somewhere yours still softly flows
Mine drifts up no grand display
Small, unsteady
But on its way
