Lyrics

Are you swimming in her pools?
Are you swimming in her pools?

Will you be brushing off her snow?
Will you be brushing off her snow?
Will you be brushing off her snow?

How can you stand the cold?
How can you stand the cold?

And if you're still there when it snows
Will you still be there when it goes?
Will you still be there when it's time
To fill the pools again?

And will you be coming back here?
Will you be coming back here?
Will you be coming back here?

Are you running up the river banks
And tracing them like long fingers
Are you running up her river banks
And navigating them?
Fingers of a hand

'Cause fingers make the hand
And rivers make the land

Is she cradling you well?
Oh is she cradling you well?
'Cause if I call you baby, she should cradle you well

Does she fucking know?
Does she fucking know?

And how the lines that appear around your eyes
When you are smiling
Are revered for the way in which they always reappear

Oh, will you be coming back here?
Oh, will you be coming back here?
Oh, will you be coming back here?

I hope you find your mother
I hope you find your mother there
I hope you find your mother there

You hit the ground running with a terrifying speed
But it's the ground you cover that terrifies me
And brace yourself for the sound of bleeding

'Cause bleeding hearts bleed
Bleeding hearts bleed
Bleeding hearts bleed

And "please" is not a word that I ever say quietly...

You said your love was fierce, fierce, fierce
You said your love was fierce, it's true
You said your love was fierce, fierce, fierce
You said your love was fierce and I agree with you

His child of the future is the child I am seeing, too
You said your love was fierce and I agree with you
These tigers at heart are the tigers I am seeing, too
You said your love was fierce and I agree with you
