about

Everything Will Be Alright, Part V of XII

lyrics

I'm cloudy, I'm shaky, and you are an oak tree
I'm 5am dew drops, and you are the sea

I'll grow you around me, I'll roost in your branches
I'll bind me with rope so the wind can't loose me

ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-oooooh oooooh

ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh
oooh-oooh

at first sight, you shone like the light through a keyhole
and I tumbled in like a bee in the spring
now at night when my ghost gets shook free from the bones
you cradle the vessel 'til the spirit comes home
you cradle the vessel 'til the spirit comes home

ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-oooooh oooooh

ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh
ooh ooh-ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh
oooh-oooh

again and again just as bats from the cave
I stray into the dusk and then come back always
I stray into the dusk and then come home again
