Lyrics

may you never lose your softness
find the gold down in the grey
shooting stars underwater
may they light you underway

there were smoke signals and telegrams
even pigeons flyin’ home
but i sent messages in bottles
while you waited by the phone

how we change the ways that we hold hands
and though your voice i longed to hear
it was the summertime of nighthawks
how they always kept you near

in the midnight lagoon, no don’t be afraid
they’re only ghosts of the loons
and kingfisher grenades
under strawberry moons
my green-eyed mermaid

so come down from the mountains
o’er to jedediah
you’ve got nothin’ to lose
but time

we spend all our days waiting
for the money or the time
storing all our lonely treasures
gambled years countin’ dimes

so come out on the ocean
o’er to jedediah
you’ve got nothin’ to lose

in a midnight lagoon, no don’t be afraid
they’re only ghosts of the loons
and kingfisher grenades
under strawberry moons
my green-eyed mermaid
on jedediah
our own serenade
