Lyrics

[Intro]
Black water hushes under my ribs
A far small window flickers like a pulse
Say my name across the tide

[Verse 1]
I've been gone so long the oars forgot my hands
Maps bled into rain until the edges ran
Salt on my mouth tastes like old plans
Debts I can't remember owing any land
Night tries to turn me, but I drag the bow

[Build]

[Chorus]
One lit window cutting through the cold
You never turned the lock, you left the door untold
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
If I break on the waves, call me by my name
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
(I'm rowing home)

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
The shore I left still lives in smoke on my clothes
I feared the door swelled shut, its hinges full of ghosts
But my hands remember the shape of your face
Even if memory lies, muscle keeps faith
Every pull is a prayer into the blacker foam

[Build 2]

[Chorus 2]
That same lit window steady as a drum
Your never-locked door saying I belong
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
My name in the glass, warm against the cold
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home

[Drop 2]

[Breakdown]
If the door ever stuck, I'd shoulder it wide
You never turned the lock; you kept my side
My hands remember your face in the dark
I was never fully gone; you kept the spark

[Final Build]

[Final Drop]

[Outro]
Leave a light in the window, I'm rowing home
(I’m rowing home)
