Future Islands "On The Water" lyrics

Translation to:to

On The Water

There are the moments that we saveAnd the dreams that fade awayAnd sometimes they come togetherAnd we can walk through the room we made, in the winterOn a bed, made of featherWhen our hands held the answersTo life and love and nothingTo life and love, and some thingsYou just can't pull away

I waited for an answerYou turned towards me, leaving

Body of MineBody of ChristThe tongue is left to dineAnd takes it's precious time

Your body aliveMy body on fireGive me the chance to burnOne last time

Watching from the shoreA house caught in storm--breathes for the morningAnd calls us, without warningAnd pleadsTo the light in your eyes"Never stop your lanterns burning..."I shield you like a candle

Body of MineBody of ChristCan I be the one who saves your life?

Your body aliveMy body on fireCan I be the one you hold tonight?

Can I be the one?Can I be the one you hold tonight?
