The Life, second song on "Electra City Church Bells" EP
lyrics
Read the signs and you let yourself wonder
What’s away from the fault line
Sun and tears find their time to go under
Everyday changes everything
Be bold Be brave
And believe in love
Grow old and grey
Now we’ve just begun
Cast away in a paperback ocean
You try to walk but it might sting
Yesterday is a picture that’s frozen
Spread your arms
Now you’re growing wings
Be bold Be brave
And believe in love
Grow old and grey
Now we’ve just begun
Step away from the life that you’ve made for yourself
Take a break from the work of your day and go out
Go out
I don’t just hear you
I am listening
Your mouth is moving
And I am listening
I don’t just hear you
I am listening
Your mouth is moving
Your body’s listening
I don’t just hear you
I am listening
Your mouth is moving
And I am listening
I learned a lot from you
I learned what not to do
What’d you say again
What’d you say again
Say again, say again
Be bold Be brave
And believe in love
Grow old and grey
Now we’ve just begun
Suddenly I awake to the words from your mouth
Step away from the life that you made for yourself
Take away from the light and give of yourself
