Bright Lights and Goodbyes Lyrics

Fish don't care for a quiet sea
The trees won't give the lightning sky
Who died right from living thin?
We'll throw our gold where water's wide

When the world grows love in between the words
Held beneath your tongue, they sound strange
When we listen there's a heartbeat singing 'bout the need for leaves
Wind within the wind and change

Nameless days and a memory like stone
Snowfall coming and a warm walking home
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes

When we listen there's a rainfall calling us ground for green
Waves beyond the waves like old stars
We can hear fear like fire in the river blood
Hands for pulling through
I'll pull you hard

Night likes feeling its lovers all run free
Time loves crying, it was kind to give us these
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes
Bright lights and goodbyes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
