lyrics

All the small towns
On the shorelines
Two shadows
On the cliffside

And a lone car
On the brown rocks
Black water
Red on my side

It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light

And the small towns
On the black bay
Nothing moving
All is quiet

And the seabirds
In the slate sky
Guide the cold wind
Back to my side

It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light

But we wake up
From a long dream
And an old song
Floats over the water

It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light
It’s just a trick of the light

It’s just at trick of the light!

Listeners expecting conventional guitar-driven indie-pop will find themselves swept into complex arrangements of trumpets and mandolins instead. ... more
