alvvays – next of kin lyrics
[verse 1]
we walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
i caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
you took something before you went in the shower
to help suppress the things that make you feel uptight
[pre-chorus]
if i’d known you couldn’t swim
we would never have gone in
[chorus 1]
i left my love in the river
the only one who sees
i lost his hand in the current
it was the life i wanted and i’d hoped for
and now i am left sifting through the leaves
[verse 2]
the sun so hot, i saw his skin through his t-shirt
the gr-ss so tall, we knew we wouldn’t be found
we climbed into the stream so no one would be heard
and in no time at all, there wasn’t a sound
[pre-chorus]
if i’d known you couldn’t swim
we would never have gone in
[chorus 1]
i left my love in the river
the only one who sees
i lost his hand in the current
it was the life i wanted and i’d hoped for
and now i am left sifting through the leaves
[bridge]
no color to his skin
inform the next of kin
no color to his skin
[chorus 2]
i left my love in the river
the only one i see
i left his hand in the current
and now i am left blowing through the trees
[outro]
ooh
ooh
