The Center - Tanya Donelly

You’re in the room I can feel you

I don’t want to, then I do

I hear the voices of the graces in here

Swimming around

Up in the corners of our room

You hold the center and I sing forever

And you won’t hear the same song twice

We’re shorter of breath, maybe longer in tooth lately

You are the love of my life

I’m on your side, believe it or not

Just don’t sneak up on me

And we’ll do just fine

Hold out your arm

And I will fly to you

Bring your leather

And I will sink my pins in

You hold the center and I sing forever

And you won’t hear the same song twice

We’re shorter of breath, maybe longer in tooth lately

You are the love of my life

You are the mountain, I’m the low-flying bi-plane

We come together in the most calamitous ways

You’re the tsunami I am the fisher in the bay

We come together in the most glamorous ways

You hold the center, I ride the satellite

We come together

You are the love of my life
