"A Boat To An Island On The Wall" lyrics
"A Boat To An Island On The Wall"
To care, or not to care
To be you there
In the distant and uncertain
To be aware
In an old Iberian hotel room
That the devil
Is not behind the curtain
She said walk in small steps
And fear floating
We made a pact
A certain approaching
Leaned on the sky
The smoking cigarette
Said it's late
You should be going
The wind is howling
The house is showing
Boat to an island on the wall
A Hand striking in slow motion
Future singing in the field
Shooting season's open
To care, or not care
To be aware
In your absence an angel chose this for you
You're supposed to laugh
Tell your fortune to the sailor
This is the black mountain pass
These hours the sun shines to moonlight, black
Boat to an island on the wall
A hand striking in slow motion
Future singing in the field
Shooting season's open
Boat to an island on the wall
A hand striking in slow motion
That's it, that's it all
Shooting season's open
Thanks to aluff for correcting these lyrics.

It's enough
I wear my garment so it shows
Now you know
Only love is all maroon
Gluey feathers on a flume
Sky is womb and she's the moon
I am my mother on the wall...
The National - "Nobody Else Will Be There" You said we're not so tied together
What did you mean?
Meet me in the stairwell in a second
For a glass of gin
Nobody else will be there then
Nobody else will be there

Francis And The Lights - "Just For Us" My, my, my
Someone wanna take you home
Don't let 'em
Even when you're on your own
Everyone's watching
They don't run your life
They don't understand what's good for you
I know you're not scared

Florence + The Machine - "Patricia" Oh Patricia, you've always been my North Star
And I have to tell you something, I'm still afraid of the dark
But you take my hand in your hand
From you the flowers grow

Wild Rivers - "Heart Attack" I step back just to frame it
And I didn't know too much
Narrowed my eyes, tried to cut through lies
I was losing touch
Darlin' I didn't know nothing
Hit like a head full of wine
Came like a curse, I...
