The Lonely Forest - Soundings In Fathoms lyrics

You are a book with torn out pages Thrown from your heart to the fire I'd like to rewrite your missing chapters Riddle your plot with desire And I have overturned rocks Searching for life below Now I shall put them all back You are an avalanche Swiftly descending Soon overtaking my house on a hill I'll wait outside against all precaution Convince myself to hold still And I have overturned rocks Searching for life below Now I shall put them all back Whoa whoaaa whoaaa Patiently I'll wait And by the water's edge And soundings in fathoms To measure out your depth You are a body Of water so deep I dare not dive A fearful leviathan Lurks underneath Do you have something to hide? No And I have overturned rocks Searching for life below Now I shall put them all back And patiently I'll wait And by the water's edge And soundings in fathoms To measure out your depth You are a book with torn pages Thrown from your heart to the fire I'd like to rewrite your missing chapters Riddle your plot with desire And I have overturned rocks Searching for life below Now I shall put them all back
