Whole Heart
03:31
|

There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m pushing inwards and outwards
To stitch it up
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m gonna reach in
And collect up my blood
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m pushing inwards and outwards
To stitch it up
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m gonna reach in
And collect up my blood
Just one prick
And I have found my way through
To an underpass
Connecting tunnels to you
Hearts have opened
Now my finger’s on the needle
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m pushing inwards and outwards
To stitch it up
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m gonna reach in
And collect up my blood
I’ve a whole, whole heart
Cross stitch
Close up my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m pushing inwards and outwards
To stitch it up
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m gonna reach in
And collect up my blood
Just one prick
And I have found my way through
To an underpass
Connecting tunnels to you
Hearts have opened
Now my finger’s on the needle
There’s a hole in my heart
There’s a hole in my heart
And I’m pushing inwards and outwards
To stitch it up
There’s a hole in my heart
I’ve a whole heart
And I’m gonna reach in
And collect up my blood

Like Royalty

Waiting in the spaces
Of the place we used to know
Keeping us in t-shirts
And the unfamiliar
Postcodes and district lines
I do remember
Work on the hours
On the other side
Brother, brother
Oh won’t you come with me?
Down into the river
That feeds into the deep
We’ll build fishing nets
That we cast into the seas
And we’ll throw them all back
Oh sister, won’t you come with me?
We’ll place castings
Round our little apple trees
And we know that when we leave
They’ll follow us
Like royalty
Waiting in the spaces
Of the place we used to know
Keeping us in t-shirts
And the unfamiliar
Postcodes and district lines
I do remember
Work on the hours
On the other side
Brother, sister, won’t you come with me?
We’ll place castings
Round our little apple trees
And we know that when we leave
They’ll follow us
Like royalty
Like royalty

Birds
04:27
|
|||
We see tired wings
Flowing to song
And we aim
To float in with the fields
There are times past
Open to seed
Then there’s the aftermath
Now the light
Crinkles under the sun
And we’re left
Gazing out by the beads
We see bodies and ash
As they mess with the gravity
That’s our return
Our return
That’s our return
Sleep under the earth
And the birds
They wait
Wait just for me
Out with the everbeings
Now the light
Crinkles under the sun
And we’re left
Gazing out by the beads
We see bodies and ash
As they mess with the gravity
That’s our return

Hunting Season
03:18
|

I’ll sing you a dawn song
I’ll sing you a love song
Let’s go to bed my love
And wake up in the spring
Let’s wake
To the hunting season
Let’s wake
You’re the find and the reason
I’ll sing you a dawn song
I’ll sing you a love song
Lover, I can’t keep love down
It comes up
Let’s wake
To the hunting season
Let’s wake
You’re the find and the reason
Find and the reason
Find and the reason
Find and the reason
Find and the reason
Find and the reason
You’re the find and the reason
Find and the reason
You’re the find and the reason
Lover, I can’t keep love down
It comes up

Song for Lovers
04:40
|
|||
Sing a song for lovers
Sing a song
Sing a song for lovers
As they get lost
Out in the fog
Out in the forest
See her
On bended knees
In the blossoms
Writing on windows
And inky black stones
Flashes of white
In the dark morning light
Held her cheeks
Her steady strong gaze
Has held us all
And we hoped to stay
Sing a song for lovers
Sing a song
Sing a song for lovers
As they find their peace
Underneath their fears
Underneath their fears
See him
Kneel by the side
Of the loved one
Bounded, unbroken
Untouchable plans
He will rebuild
What was lost in the kiln
Of his maker
His steady kind hands
Have touched us all
By this light
By this light
Sing a song for lovers
Sing a song
Sing a song for lovers
As they get lost
Out in the fog
Out in the forest

Lady
06:32
|

Lady, lady, lady
Who waits upon your hip?
Lady, lady, lady
What ancient wall is this?
That echoes salt and crystal
I must mend the holy
So wash my waist with spoken oil
And faith
Lady, lady, lady
Who waits upon your feet?
Lady, lady, lady
What peril heard of this?
That equals hiss and softer thighs
And damned county
That wends into your darling eye
And pressed
Oh lady, lady, lady
I couldn’t confess
Fine lady, lady, ladies
Could not comparest
We plucked the roots
And found it there
Beneath the tresses
Now come again
And say we meant it
Oh lady, lady, lady
What darkened hour is this?
Lady, lady, lady
I’ve wandererdest
It brings me to my troubled site
In forest thickest
We wrote it in the little lines

Acceptance
04:34
|

Come with me
Acceptance
I’m honoured to be
Here with you
Acceptance
Acceptance
Take this seat
Acceptance
The wind’s in the boughs
Ripping through the extraordinary
Acceptance
And will you wait
Acceptance?
I’ve washed my hands
There’s barely any spots left on this soul
Acceptance
When you see me in the end
And the soil’s under my tongue
It’s given to me
Out by the ever-changing oceans
Oh acceptance
Acceptance

Undertow
04:40
|
|||
People come
And people go
Lose them down
In the undertow
We’ve got simple things
At the end of strings
Down there
Ease them out
Or leave them down
They won’t drown
If you send them out
Just let them go
Let them go
Let them go
People come
And people go
Lose them down
In the undertow
We’re got simple things
We leave sweeter things
Down there
Ease them out
Or leave them down
They won’t drown
If you send them out
Just let them go
Let them go
Let them go

New Zealand Lullaby
04:17
|
|||
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little child
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little one
Down in the deep
Where the rocks and the ash
Are all covered with sea
You’ll rest there in peace
Until they bring you up
To me
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little child
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little one
Out with the trees
That are clinging to the cliffs
In the dark mountain air
All curled up in bed
With the kings beside
Your head
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little child
Sleep, oh sleep
Oh little one
Down in the deep
Where the rocks and the ash
Are all covered with sea
You’ll rest there in peace
Until they bring you up
Until they bring you up
Until they bring you up
To me
