birkwin & vienna - we were castles lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
we threw ourselves
into translation
and got lost in rhythms of new patterns of speech
with heart-shaped hands you fell asleep

[verse 2]
muttering something like:
“you can call me darling when we’re older if you like”
now loose ends are lost like knots long forgotten by the waves

[pre-chorus]
and we can tell our newborn will be fathers
before we were dust, we were castles
and we were safe

[chorus]
and we can tell the newborn will be fathers
before we were dust, we were castles
and we were safe

[hook x2]
so throw your light on another one
you’re supposed to float better cause you were a strong swimmer
but you’ve still got the fingernails of a worried man

[verse 3]
slowly sinking heavy hearts
make anchors for the drifting ones
and a siren, oh a sailor’s last love
now your hands are shaped like arrows
and we speak in rain clouds
while we’re so close to drowning
and we sighed, harder than most

[chorus x2]
and we can tell the newborn will be fathers
before we were dust, we were castles
and we were safe

[hook x3]
so throw your light on another one
you’re supposed to float better cause you were a strong swimmer
but you’ve still got the fingernails of a worried man
