[Verse 1]
Snow dust hums on my boots tonight,
Lanterns sway, painting frost with light.
Voices call, trading whispers for dreams,
I’m chasing shadows in their seams.
[Chorus/Hook]
Oh, we glow, we fade, in the tundra’s hum,
Carrying lanterns where the memories come.
Hold the light, let it slip, let it run,
We’re whole in the drift, under midnight’s sun.
[Verse 2]
A trader hums, her eyes like stars,
Sells me a flicker from a glass jar.
It’s not mine, but it feels so near,
A laugh I lost in the frost last year.
[Bridge or Break]
Gone, gone, the lanterns sigh,
Drift, drift, beneath the sky.
Hold the glow, it’s not to keep,
Memories sing me to sleep.
[Chorus/Hook]
Oh, we glow, we fade, in the tundra’s hum,
Carrying lanterns where the memories come.
Hold the light, let it slip, let it run,
We’re whole in the drift, under midnight’s sun.
