歌詞

I found a coin in the heat of July

Under plum trees where secrets lie

Children’s laughter in distant streets

Time slows down in the summer heat

Painted fans and paper sky

Fortune hides where sparrows fly

Eyes like lanterns, soft and wide

You said, “The island’s just inside”

Oh, fortune, whisper to me

Through silent bells and lemon tea

Is this dream a sacred land?

Or just sand slipping through my hand?

Oh, fortune, let me believe

In islands we’ve yet to leave

Steps of stone and summer rain

A silent shrine where wishes remain

The sun leans low, gold through the blinds

I close my eyes, but never mind

You wore a smile I couldn’t read

Half a myth, half a need

We drew maps on steamy glass

Every fortune bound to pass

Oh, fortune, whisper to me

Through silent bells and lemon tea

Is this dream a sacred land?

Or just sand slipping through my hand?

Oh, fortune, let me believe

In islands we’ve yet to leave

Island of silk, voices from the shore

All we want is something more

But fortune only answers twice

Once in truth, and once in ice

Oh, fortune, don’t drift away

You were the song of yesterday

Faint and bright, a hidden sign

In the middle of this sunshine

Oh, fortune, let me believe

In islands we’ll one day retrieve
