Lyrics Bat For Lashes – Pearl’s Dream

There’s a place I must go
There’s a place I must go
It’s not a place I have seen
But I’ll get there in a new dream

Down an ocean road
Past a sign that says «good love town»
Into a darkness where the stars do drown
Where the starry me needs to be free

And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand (k)nights gone
To any kingdom I run

And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand (k)nights gone
To any kingdom I run

There’s a place I must go
There’s a place I must go
For my heart is a child
That stumbles lonely for the arms of a bride

Hear the desert sigh
Sing the city’s lullaby
The giant iris of the wide blue sky
Showing me the way

And when the battle was done
I was promised my son
But with a thousand (k)nights gone
To any kingdom I run

And when the battle was done
I was promised my son

You know that it’s time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it’s time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
You know that it’s time to go up, up, up, up, up
Had a big machine riding your shoulders
