Sail Songtext

Future Islands

von From A Hole In The Floor To A Fountain Of Youth

Sail Songtext
In an Escher town
In the Palace Gallen, hidden low
And the peaks stay Saint
And the streets wind up and down below
To the balcony
Where the hands embrace amidst the rows
And the flickering screen
And the smell of almonds in the grove

Don't leave
Don't leave
To come so close to offer this
Don't leave, won't leave

And the screen says, "Stay," every time
The image it plays in my mind
And we say Grace
Every time we're in this place
Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror that we make?

Where we haven't run
Deep into the rows
Where the olives grow
Lost in the unknown
Until lost is all we know
And the pollen silt
Till we're tracing in the snow

And down into the screen
Says "Stay," every time
The image it's burned in my mind
And we say Grace
Every time we're face-to-face
Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror that we make?

Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
All the time
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
Don't leave
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
All the time
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
Don't leave
Take all the time
All the time
