The captain’s eyes
They seem to say
Go drive forever
In the darkest rain

But beauty hums
A broken tune
I hear you sing it
And I fall into

That summer nights are long
I need this memory to be moving on
We’re little broken ones
But fly in numbers out of darkness
So you are not alone

The country bird
Where kingdom rise
There’s no horizon
I’ve been all around

Here, people drive
I’m people too
Here, I don’t really know
What birds should do

But summer nights are long
Some northern memories I’m leaning on
We’re little broken ones
But fly in numbers out of darkness
So you are not alone

A fever yells, it calls for me
In every mirror every time
Is that the captain that I hear
Or every wind and wave around

I’m in your hands, and you’re in mine
Some hope has gathered in the little lines
Around your eyes from days of storm
Rickety airplanes but the only way is right into

And summer nights are long
Some northern memories I’m leaning on
We’re little broken ones
But fly in numbers out of darkness
So you are not alone
