Lyrics

Spread my ashes through your sands
It’s good to not be where I’ve been
Sifting through your helpless hands

Will the hills that led us here
Lead me right back down again?
From the castle to the pier
Your spirit shines

A northern star by which to steer
And I’m glad I told you so
Even if you see me as a stepping stone

And when we can no longer laugh
You feel my heartbeat on your back
I always end up out of breath

Isabela, help me out
I’m drowning in between the droughts
Douse the ashes of my doubt
With your constellation eyes of greenest glass
Their gravitation pulls me
Through the fever dream of time
To a sundial in the shade
By the moonlight you’ll be mine
