Lyrics Big Thief – Wolf
Text:
Here to the mornin’ noon
Woke up as you left the room
Pillow still warm
Scent like meadow grass
Has the feelin’ come to pass?
Has the feelin’ come to stay?
What can we say?
Wishin’ you’d hang around
Livin’ on the waterfront
Witnessing the gameless hunt
Mermaids don’t kill
That’s the way they seem, so fine
Now your lips are on the line
Now there is a broken tongue
Neck is so young
Felt so frozen
Have you seemed to follow through
On everything you yearned for?
Steps so fair
So much certainty
Now, as far as we can see
The water’s getting deeper
My safe-keeper
The wolf is howling for me
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
When she holds me in her jaw
All the blood dripping
Will I be free
To cease gripping?
To cease gripping?
Find me lyin’ on the ground
Open hands empty
I’ll return back again
If you let me
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
