ida (hold you steady) - transcript lyrics

[verse 1]
we’ll meet in springtime in the east
anonymity to utterly complete
as we grow, new york city’s home
a bull’s eye and a bow * we melt like styrofoam

[chorus 1]
when the water files under the bed like children in a line
oh, i’ll hold you steady, knowing our money’s in faithful, true designs
give ’em my coat and your well*wishes and watch as they all set sail
take all my tears, the water in waves, and size it down to scale

[verse 2]
who could prеdict the mess we’rе in
sympathetic violins, perjury, and sin?
and the fraught eulogy is there *
those snowflakes in my hair * it’s all just so unfair

[chorus 2]
when the water files under the bed like children in a line
oh, i’ll hold you steady, knowing our money’s in faithful, true designs
give ’em my coat and your well*wishes and watch as they all set sail
take all my tears, the water in waves, and size it down to scale

[bridge]
oh god himself, the fires and floods
can’t drown me away from you
after the ship goes down, they pull you out
what am i to do?
[chorus 3]
when the water reached our heads, i thanked you for being mine
’cause since the beginning, been waiting for you to tell me you changed your mind
where you go, i go * i’ve thought it all through * i’ve said all my last goodbyes
it seems we lived for love, this way we’ll die
