Harbor Light

A boat easing into a familiar harbor at dusk — the quiet, wordless relief of arriving back in yourself.

[Intro]

(instrumental — tanpura drone, warm pad swell, distant water and a faint bell buoy; no vocals)

[Verse 1]

Eyes closed, the day lets go now Warm dark water pulls me under Breath comes slower, soft and easy Light turns amber behind my eyes

[Refrain]

Harbor light, hold me still Water knows the way back home Harbor light, breathe and settle You are home, you are home

[Verse 2]

Weight of the day is softening Spreading out like light on water Every breath, a slow tide now Filling up the space, and held

[Refrain]

Harbor light, hold me still Water knows the way back home Harbor light, breathe and settle You are home, you are home

[Drift]

(instrumental — guitar drifts on tape echo, Mellotron carries a slow melody, tanpura and pads sustain and deepen; no vocals)

[Final Refrain]

Harbor light Hold me Home

[Outro]

Harbor light Soft and low Home now Home (then instrumental fade — tanpura and pad decay, distant water and bell buoy, dissolving into room tone)
