- Future Islands The Fountain 歌词
- Future Islands
- He sits low
In a shady grove Where the trees arc slow In the shape of you know Marble stairwells waterfalls Egrets heads and open arms Whistling through his pensive teeth The scene is set to peak Like how the desert meets the reef And steals the heart
Of the thief
She walks slow Past the reach of home In a western world Far from the things she knows Hanging gardens patterned walls The books of Rilke orchestras Motioning to the slow refrain The soul is set to gain Or swallow it whole
The causal chain
Of human loam
And as seasons go It's a lot like this He reasons for a look And then a glance To the path Where she passed From the page of a book To a perch in the grass As meetings go It's a lot like this She tiptoes from the path To the edge of the page Where she dared To be asked What's in a name What is your name
And if you let me know
I won't be alone
I won't be alone
And if you
Have the time to talk to me
I won't doubt you
And if I let you know
And if I let you know
I won't be alone
I won't be alone
And if you
And if you start to fall
I'll be here to catch you
Turning around he sighs Will you sit next to me
Motioning forward She replies Will you walk next to me
I know my lines
There's a lot less space A little bit of time
I know the play
It's fine
Echoing herself she says Will you walk close to me
Holding his smile He replies What more would you ask of me
I know my mind And there's a lot less space A little bit of time
I know the way
It's fine
And if you let me know
I won't be alone
I won't be alone
And if you
Have the time to talk to me
I won't doubt you
And if I let you know
And if I let you know
I won't be alone
I won't be alone
And if you
And if you start to fall
I'll be here to catch you
He's wasting time
You gotta take it slow
May never get a chance like this
And she knows he's wasting time And she loves the way he tries
Even though she knows the lines
She's taking time
You gotta let things grow
May never have a chance like this
And he knows she takes her time And he keeps along side All hopes to keep along her side
And as seasons go It's a lot like this He reasons for a look Then a glance To the path Where she passed From the page of a book To a perch in the grass And as meetings go It's a lot like this She tiptoes from the path To the edge of the page Where she dared To be asked What's in a name What is your name
