"many lives" lyrics

"many lives"

I have your hands
My precious my head
Strands where I've been
Weave words you said

Take out my eyes
For lucky stones
Staring at you
Feel tremors through

House of a dream
Walk into me
Dead in the morning
Shines the eve

Fire pouring out
The blinking stones
A blanket thrown
You're not alone

(You're not alone)
(You're not alone)

You know I've lived many lives
Many lies many tides
Hang me high over the hills
Water cries broken by

Long as the road of dreams where I leave you
Blue as the veins we separate into
Not all was said for words leave a shadow
Leave me behind, within, between, below
Follow the sun a thread spun around me
Your word a breath I held it inside me
Run running through the places I won't be
Stand next to me the river in memory

It's only age
And all I've seen
Born of a cave
I'm opening

Take out this heart
In beating heat
Then rinse it in the
River deep

Now as I watch
You bow your head
There is no other
Way you said

Still I shine from
This watching eye
Facing toward
What faces mine

Turn my shadow three times round in
To the long night, blinking out like

Long as the road of dreams where I leave you
Blue as the veins we separate into
Not all was said for words leave a shadow
Leave me behind, within, between, below
Follow the sun a thread spun around me
Your word a breath I held it inside me
Run running through the places I won't be
Stand next to me the river in memory
