Vespertine

Ozark Henry

It's ok to phone the island 
The ferry's just arrived 
With all we all have asked for 
And more, we can't deny 
The love to share illusions 
Bears away the palm 
We taste the awful secret 
The hunger never dies 
Onwards new tomorrows 
Ghosts we keep alive 
Vespertine 
The end is where I start 
Vespertine 
It's ok phone the island 
The summer's just arrived 
With more than we have asked for 
Love is here all right 
History's our future 
Ghosts we keep alive 
Vespertine 
The end is where I start 
Vespertine 
To all our escapes 
To all that really matters 
To you
