Unknown Artist - Light The Lanterns

127Copied!

She was born on a magic island
There's a certain mythology
I was already on the outside
I wanted to be what I wanted to be

She took me to illumination night;
To pass on a legacy

Crazy ladies in gingerbread houses
Light the lanterns for the shipwrecked sailors
Celebrate the homecoming

Celebrate the moment when
The will to live collides with love
Lights the lanterns, everyone
And pray that the rain won't come

She left me with Grace the next year
She went away, I don't know where
Grace got drunk in a Chinese restaurant
So all I saw were the lights extinguishing

I'm going back on Illumination Night
To see if I can light the lights

Crazy ladies in gingerbread houses
Light the lanterns for the shipwrecked sailors
Celebrate the homecoming

Celebrate the moment when
The will to live collides with love
Lights the lanterns, everyone
And pray that the rain won't come

Crazy ladies in gingerbread houses
Light the lanterns for the shipwrecked sailors
Celebrate the homecoming

Celebrate the moment when
The will to live collides with love
Lights the lanterns, everyone
And pray that the rain won't come
