Wild Love (feat. Keren Ann)

It's in the stones, the shade,

everybody knows

quicksilver only flows

one way, these days,

a fever on the breeze

strips the shelter from the trees, and holds no rain

But I believe as colours fade this light is still enough,

to guide you to my arms again my wild love

my wild love

I've seen my words in a blue tattoo,

and frozen in the skin,

a drunken moment mimicking the truth,

is that enough?

Poet it's okay to store these things away and just shut up

And I believe the hourglass still has time for us,

so sing to me your melody of wild love

And call me to your arms again,

I'll brave the ice, the fire, the flame

All hope is gone but we still have our wild love

So burn it all, summon all your dark,

for your carnival of broken hearts,

I will wash you clean in the waters of our wild love

so burn it all in your search for gold,

your black design, your fallen gods,

I will wash you clean in the waters of our wild love

so, darling put your hand in mine,

I'll hold back the tide and time,

and never leave the garden of our wild love

our wild love, our wild love.
