"Locket" lyrics

"Locket"

So long, my long-lost wonder
How come you left some summer?
When I was young and sun was bright
Now, daydreams play like movies when
Real scenes are gray, but beauty
Feels all around yet somehow blind
Oh, it's so hard to see sometimes

Like a rocket lost in the space debris
Like a million waves in the ocean deep
Like a locket worn where no one will see
You don't have to be alone for lonely

Read me in little pieces
Dog-eared, don't mind the creases
Some feelings need forgiving eyes
Am I still on your shelf, or
Has light yellowed the cover?
Some people thumb through, most walk by
I must be hard to read sometimes

Like a rocket lost in the space debris
Like a million waves in the ocean deep
Like a locket worn where no one will see
You don't have to be alone for lonely

Look up, the sun is shining
Good luck and stars aligning
On far horizons, dark clouds fade
But you're still walking in the rain

Like a rocket lost in the space debris
Like a million waves in the open sea
Like a locket worn far apart from the key
You don't have to be alone for lonely
For lonely
