"The Chant" lyrics

"The Chant"

How could you not see me coming for you and not be alive
How did you ever sleep abandoned on the beach
I crossed the bridge of sighs for you

Oh, my darlin', how I fell for you
On the shores of darkness I fell too soon
Teach me love and how to hold onto your fire

The sea is calm your hands so warm
How soon could I taste you again
This is the shadow of the road I take
Too beautiful to last such a leap of faith
I crossed the bridge of sighs for you

Oh, my darlin', how I'm going down
I heading north onto the frozen ground
Teach me living that I won't mind dying now into you

Oh, my darlin', can I come back home
I killed a man and I'm so alone
Teach me loving that I won't mind dying into you
