Life And Limb - Vanna

In the name of a woman.

Standing anxious at a window

Counting waves to see.

Our letters wash up

Swearing us safe.

Cut through the night

Close your eyes.

And ride the wind

Into the depths.

Her flowing beauty

Never said what would become of us

A truth too great for concern

She worse her heart.

Like a blood red stain

On the chest of a velvet gown

Thrown bare at the mouth of hell

And all the grace.

That she gave to the world

Comes down tonight.

Comes down tonight

So we share.

Our frozen gaze.

An assuring bond

To carry on.

To carry on

We’ll never be the same.

No we’ll never be the same

Home becomes our sun.

breaking the horizon

Like a spotlight to tired eyes

Brilliant as the sun.

breaking the horizon

Like a spotlight to tired eyes

So we lit the sails.

And cast ourselves in

To the searching eyes.

We were a wreck

A sight for miles.

A scene to break

A thousand hearts.

If on ashes.

We wash ashore

Then by the sea we are spared

We are spared and pure

Into the depths.

Her flowing beauty

Never said what would become of us

A truth too great for concern

She worse her heart.

Like a blood red stain

On the chest of a velvet gown

Thrown bare at the mouth of hell

Never forget.

The fury of a well aimed promise

We’ll never be the same.

No we’ll never be the same
