lyrics

if i say good night will you follow me down the hall / smudge your fingerprints on the blue paper lining the walls / in your little house nestled into these city streets / i hid away from the storm that’s been hanging over me

and those bight brown eyes, they are islands i’ve swam to before / your crooked smile is the anchor that pulls me to shore / if the waves are high, darling i won’t be running scared / i will hold my breath if you just keep me floating here

and no i’m not, i’m not afraid / your lips are still, but your hands ask me to stay

and though the night, it’s a cold one, it’s a cold one / your skin is warm and your voice feels like the sun / and though the rain, it keeps falling, it’s falling / i am safe when it’s my name you’re calling

if i ask you why the moon hangs over the tides / well you tell me tales of wolves and their broken cries / with whispered words you can sing me to sleep / and i’ll memorize a map of your skin to keep

and you say you’re not afraid / my teeth are sharp but you tell me we fight the same

[repeat chorus]
