blankets - tapestry lyrics

Loading...

when the clouds show their teeth i can retreat under our canopy
st-rdy and tall like a fortress of maple
a precious escape, dip in honey kept safe in the hive
while you hold up a bone to the hounds at my ankles

dressed in mold, i came in cold, then wore our laughter like a coat
and checked my worries into a bank of snow
as we got buried we shortened the lengths of rope

around table or flames we pour like summer rain onto tangled root
then it flows through our veins as we stretch out our branches
so when the clouds start to roar i can weather the storm for a while
oh the cycle that’s born from the kindest of chances

well i’ll keep tight, sixteen smiles
stretched on the mountain those summer nights
i’d poured my ants down onto the miles of road
i held my hands out and walked on the tightened rope

stay close enough to shake
when the hands coax you away
keep your share in the braid
out five thousand suns from now
when life’s pulled us around
will we squeeze on a couch?
stay close enough to shape
when time’s wooed you away
keep your roots in their place
out ten thousand moons from now
when your arms have been stretched out
make some room on the couch
