Edward Sharpe And The Magnetic Zeros - Child lyrics

The voices in my head are shadows, shadows She comes to me to tell me what they're after Says, "It ain't the end boy but you best be careful, careful" Might catch your tail end in a circle, circle The ocean, how she moves in ripples, ripples In flashing lights I swear she was an old friend Then the color bleeds and she becomes an angel, an angel Calls out to me like a siren to a scoundrel I say, "Come on, child" And I say, "Come on, child" The blanket where she holds but virtuos lights Look to the sea where the cotton hits the turnpike Staring at her needs but I don't have the words right, words right now If it were up to me might make her turn right, turn right Lost another one but she just smiles, smiles Black loving eyes and a steady steep for miles Says she wants to stay, oh wants to stay a child, child now And wonders why we ever ever have to die And I say, "Come on, child" And I say, "Come on, child" Just a touch I'm gonna carry, carry Another time where our ? shared the same life The accent of a kiss where spurs were merry, merry now It's either love or just the sun in my eyes And I say, "Come on child" And I say, "Come on child" And I say, "Come on child" Love, love, love, love, love
