lyrics
Hiding from everyone
But snow it knows
Where we’ve been and where we go
So we float through brown coral
Cold glow comes from our bones
As we lie on ice that
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, we’ll dream instead
Ocean froze
I walked in the wakes ‘til we
Met in the middle of the sea and laid in the waves
Stuck in time
Watched the day blur into night
When pockets stole your hands from me
I followed your tracks in the snow until the ice
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, we’ll dream on
Take away this snow and wind
Would you still invite me in
Out of the night and off the ice
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, just dream on
Here in the small hours, the world fades all around us
And silence is not so silent when the world is so quiet
Tomorrow falls into place as we float off into space
The weight of the day on our eyelids
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
But snow it knows
Where we’ve been and where we go
So we float through brown coral
Cold glow comes from our bones
As we lie on ice that
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, we’ll dream instead
Ocean froze
I walked in the wakes ‘til we
Met in the middle of the sea and laid in the waves
Stuck in time
Watched the day blur into night
When pockets stole your hands from me
I followed your tracks in the snow until the ice
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, we’ll dream on
Take away this snow and wind
Would you still invite me in
Out of the night and off the ice
Broke, I woke alone in my bed and I waited
For these cold, slow, old, old continents to cross the ocean
So we could meet, meet again, until then, just dream on
Here in the small hours, the world fades all around us
And silence is not so silent when the world is so quiet
Tomorrow falls into place as we float off into space
The weight of the day on our eyelids
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
We'll dream instead
