Lantern Light

My heart jumps
Needle on a record
At your name
And my eyes find you
Still the same
And despite myself
I light a flame
And set those
Lantern hearts dancing
Under the sudden summer rain

Lightning and thunder across the bay
Light up what was a heavy day
And all across the verandah
The hailstones play

A light in my heart
For you
A light in my life
Was you
A light in this world
Will do
We're all lantern hearts dancing
In the sudden summer rain

My heart jumps
Needle on a record
At your name
And my eyes find you
Still the same
And despite myself
I light a flame
And set those
Lantern hearts dancing
Under the sudden summer rain
