Zink - Dancing Embers Lyrics

Driving around the bends
Sunburn and split ends
Step out, breathe in your favourite gum leaf scent
Cause this place you know
A childhood memory glows
Days are long and time just seems to slow
Rocks are warm like coals
Beach days and kindred souls
Brave the blue, reborn in ocean cold
A spark in fading light
The flames banish the night
Right here this place is mine
Back then the wind in the trees
Was the only sound that spoke to me
Feet dangling by the cliffs edge
All the world fades to insignificance
And as young eyes become
Wearier and dull
This place will always stay
The memories remain
Back there, there's nothing to know
But dancing embers and melting gold
Now we stay the course
Tides pull us from shore
Drifting further away we'll end up lost
Until we forget
All the times we spent
By the salt and the stars full of happiness
Days, they pass like dreams
You're left wondering
Will you ever return to this feeling
But maybe embers glow
Far longer than you know
Right here, this place is mine
Back then the wind in the trees
Was the only sound that spoke to me
Feet dangling by the cliffs edge
All the world fades to insignificance
And as young eyes become
Wearier and dull
This place will always stay
The memories remain
Back there, there's nothing to know
But dancing embers and melting gold
Now in my dreams, I run to that ocean deep
Cold water numbing the tears I weep
Salt cradling the weight of my body
Just floating
But something's wrong
The tide is turning
Abyss of ice, horizon I can't see
Falling deeper and deeper now I can't breathe
But right here this place is mine
Back then the wind in the trees
Was the only sound that spoke to me
Feet dangling by the cliffs edge
All the world fades to insignificance
And as young eyes become
Wearier and dull
This place will always stay
The memories remain
Back there, there's nothing to know
But dancing embers and melting gold
