"Longhope" lyrics

"Longhope"

Don't leave her hanging around, she won't wait there forever
Has a cat got your tongue?
Are words locked in your lungs?
Just breathe in and breathe out

I think of you often but how can I soften these evergreens
From keeping their shade, though the snow falls today?
They'll reveal themselves tomorrow

My hands were shaking as we drove away
Your voice, it was more than a miracle
That night as we drove through the sleet and the snow
I think of all you've endured, please don't let us fold

Longhope, yeah, I'm coming home
Longhope, yeah, I'm coming home
Longhope

I took a walk with you and I saw the world anew
In the Mayhill pines
Down paths where Frost walks beside
Old memories brought back to life
Whispering, "Please, don't forget me."

My thoughts are all strangling
The words are all dangling before my eyes
But it's getting so dark in here
I can't really see anything clear
I'm just feeling my way through
The Winter night

My hands were shaking as we drove away
Your voice, it was more than a miracle
I know I put you through sleet and through snow
But now we've endured, I won't let us fold

Longhope, yeah, I'm coming home
Longhope, yeah, I'm coming home
Longhope
