[Intro]
Dawn fog over the quay, the bell of tide rings slow
A rusted old beacon hums like a lullaby in glow
[Verse 1]
I keep the lamp where the sea writes letters in foam
Stale coffee steaming, salt on my weathered hands I own
Then a splash of color slips through the silver sheen
An octopus twirls, a rainbow in a sea-foam dream
[Pre-Chorus]
Tentacles tracing constellations on the glassy floor
Laughing bubbles rise as I unlock the door
[Chorus]
We dance in the current, you and I, in blue and gold
Waves clap like thunder, but your laughter makes me bold
From quiet watchman to sailor of a coral town
With every twirl you paint my world upside down
[Verse 2]
Your eight little drums drum time to a watery beat
I sway the lantern shadows, your inks write portraits sweet
We flip through tides like pages in a briny book
I trade my lonely harbor for the colors you cook
[Pre-Chorus]
Your suction cup percussion writes rhythms on the glass
Together we chase the night as the kelp forests pass
[Chorus]
We dance in the current, you and I, in blue and gold
Waves clap like thunder, but your laughter makes me bold
From quiet watchman to sailor of a coral town
With every twirl you paint my world upside down
[Bridge]
If dusk tries to darken, you glitter the deep with light
In every swirling motion, the shoreline fades from sight
[Chorus]
We dance in the current, you and I, in blue and gold
Waves clap like thunder, but your laughter makes me bold
From quiet watchman to sailor of a coral town
With every twirl you paint my world upside down
[Outro]
Beacon and brave cephalopod, not lonely anymore
The sea keeps our chorus as we drift toward the shore
