Set in Cornwall in the autumn, looking out over the sea and thinking fondly of previous times spent there, as well as about friends far away who, despite time and distance, manage to stay close.
lyrics
Will the swallows be waiting there for me?
Like they’ve done before, take me to your door
Pick me up where we left
Through the days we forget
We returned just before the winter came
Set me down at the end
Where the sea meets the land
We returned just before the winter came
Bracken to the sea, waves will always be
Breaking on this shore, take me to your door
Pick me up where we left
Through the days we forget
We returned just before the winter came
Set me down at the end
Where the sea meets the land
We returned just before the winter came
Winds rolling, souls calling
Dive under deep water
Leaves turning
The tide’s a comin’ in
We’re boats on the deep water
Pick me up where we left
Through the days we forget
We returned just before the winter came
Set me down at the end
Where the sea meets the land
We returned just before the winter came
