Title:
“Harbor of Thoughts”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
C (Cmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Drifting through this sea of lights,
Am (Am7) Em (Em7)
Lost in the harbor of thoughts tonight.
C (Cmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Waves of dreams crash into the shore,
Am (Am7) Em (Em7)
Whispering secrets, wanting more.
(Chorus)
F (Fmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Sail away, sail away, into the unknown,
C (Cmaj7) Am (Am7)
Finding peace in the chaos, making it our own.
F (Fmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Sail away, sail away, under starry skies,
C (Cmaj7) Am (Am7)
In this absolute boat, where our love lies.
(Verse 2)
C (Cmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Shadows dance upon the sails,
Am (Am7) Em (Em7)
Telling tales of tempests and gales.
C (Cmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
But in the midst of the storm, we find,
Am (Am7) Em (Em7)
A beacon of hope, leaving fears behind.
(Chorus)
F (Fmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Sail away, sail away, into the unknown,
C (Cmaj7) Am (Am7)
Growing stronger with every wave, every stone.
F (Fmaj7) G (Gmaj7)
Sail away, sail away, let your spirit fly,
C (Cmaj7) Am (Am7)
In this absolute boat, under the endless sky.
