The Sketchbook

Lyrics

[Intro]


(Soft acoustic guitar picking pattern, steady and warm)


[Verse 1]
Time can drift away
It can sweep us out into the deep
But we hold onto the words we say
And the promises we try to keep

[Verse 2]
When the winter winds begin to blow
And the nights are getting cold and long
There's a spark of us that starts to glow
Like the melody inside this song

[Chorus]
We can save this love in a simple sketch
Drawn with a pencil in a notebook line
Every single memory we tried to catch
Frozen in a moment, yours and mine
Underneath the fading summer light
You are still the star that shines so bright
Holding on to me
Though the miles are wide and deep

[Verse 3]
So keep this paper close
Fold it up and put it in your coat
Where the quiet water slowly flows
And we write another little note

[Chorus]
We can save this love in a simple sketch
Drawn with a pencil in a notebook line
Every single memory we tried to catch
Frozen in a moment, yours and mine
Underneath the fading summer light
You are still the star that shines so bright
Holding on to me
Though the miles are wide and deep

[Bridge]
Oh, wait for the dawn to break
Oh, wait for the dreams we'll make
Just wait for the path we'll take
To lead us back to where we started from

[Chorus]
We can save this love in a simple sketch
Drawn with a pencil in a notebook line
Every single memory we tried to catch
Frozen in a moment, yours and mine
Underneath the fading summer light
You are still the star that shines so bright
Holding on to me
Though the miles are wide and deep

[Outro]
Just hold on to me
I will never let you go, you see
Wait for the day I come home
Wait for the day I come home

(Fading guitar pluck)
