Lyrics:

Lost, farewell
Under a sinking sun in an ocean of sky
Dust and bones
Echoes of rusty guns
I'm not too young to die
Your love is a compass rose
Steadfast through this sand and stone
Winds carry these letters home to Joe
Spinning wheels, since I was just a boy
With a travelling mind
And the bright moon steals the heart of Orion's joy
We trace a simple line
Your love is a compass rose
Steadfast through this sand and stone
Winds carry these letters home to Joe
Old memories come to life
A last dance in this amber light
Wind, carry these letters home tonight


All my days, there was a song that played
For you in my head
Your love is a compass rose
Steadfast through this sand and stone
Wind, carry these letters home to Joe
Old memories come to life
A last dance in this amber light
Wind, carry these letters home tonight
All these things on my mind
Now that I'm taking the time
To write

See these letters swirl
Like a thousand white birds in the sky up above her
I'm a flag unfurled
And I'm sending my heart to a dear friend and lover
See these letters swirl
Like a thousand white birds in the sky up above her
I'm a flag unfurled
And I'm sending my heart to a dear friend and lover

In the sky up above her

And I'm sending my heart to a dear friend and lover
